The channel is set to feature a program called 'Time to Recruit', as well as a new video series by British captive John Cantlie.
Cantlie was last seen in an IS propaganda video on 3 January.
The IS militant group already operates a FM radio channel, Al-Bayan, from Mosul in northern Iraq and a satellite TV station, Tawheed, from Libya.
Online jihadist movements' analyst J.M.Berger says the website khilafalive.info has been live for a while.
"My best guess is this is a fanboy effort," said Berger, reported The Washington Post.
