I have a job, £20 a week, and my parents give me £30 a month, but as my parents dont want me to "waste" my money on a domain, i wanna try to find a free one. I currently use .tk:P

http://www.123-reg.co.uk have .co.uk domains for £2.59 a year.

£2.59 per year = about 5p per week = a 540th of what you get per week = 0.00185 of your income :P

If they were available freely, all had been taken. Also, why would anyone buy them when they could get them free.
Domains aren't expensive (as Dazzy said), so I recommend you to buy one.
On the other side, you can get a free TK-domain, but they show ads.

Well give up then :P

No, you can't get them for free. You may get it cheap like ayjay commented.

You don't waste the money, you're going to use the domain, right?

Also, if you put some ads on your site, you will be able to earn about £2.59 a week (depends on what you put on the site). That way you earn money, instead of "wasting" them.

I'm pretty sure you won't pick up a free com/co.uk/etc domain free - unless its tied to some hosting plan/one year free.


RE: Where can i get a free domain for doing nothing? by vaccination on 11-17-2007 at 09:30 PM

Or you could ask yourself this; Do I really need a domain that no one is going to visit?

Because remember, you could always spend that money on some sweeties!


RE: Where can i get a free domain for doing nothing? by Stigmata on 11-17-2007 at 09:40 PM

When I was younger what I would do was do some work for other people, then they would pay for the domain

then I would also do some work for someone else and they would give me server space

Like create a website or throw together a few scripts...

Guess you could try that?
