Common domain name extensions such as .com, .net, .org can be bought for less than ten dollars. But there are other, less common domain name extensions that cost a fraction of this price. Some domain extensions can be bought for a dollar or less and some are even free.
Free Domain Names
Want a free domain name? get a .tk domain. Domain names ending in .tk are free. As with most free things, there’s a catch. Actually there’s a few catches. One is that free domain names are used by spammers, phishers, cybercriminals, etc. This means that a domain ending in .tk is automatically going to be blocked by a whole lot of email servers and web filters. They are untrusted.
Another catch is that the .tk registrar is not exactly reputable. They will take your domain away from you if it becomes popular. That way they can make money from it themselves.
So a free .tk domain might be a good idea for a little hobby website that you are developing, but certainly should never be used for anything that you want to keep forever.
