    The word "loan" is an excellent keyword. What ccTLD is .tk? Isn't that one of those "free" extentions where you don't own the domain?

    No this is a paid domain registered at moniker for two years. It is just an normal domain.

    It is a ccTLD for Tokelau, a country in the South Pacific.

    Not bad of a domain if you paid for the domain. Maybe $xx.xx

    Loan is excellent word, I would say $70 for it.

    Isnt 70 a bit low? Great keyword, short and describes what you want. Even .TK wich also is short.

    Develope it and get your revenue.. Or EBAY it for atleast starting 1.000 bucks

    I would think that many domainers out there will see .tk as a "free" extention so that would devalue it. I would say Low $xxx

    You could register it on dot.TK for free and just send one SMS to remove all the ads.

    [*] I have already registered it at Moniker.

    [*] Doing that would not enable me to sell the domain as it is against their TOS to sell the domain if it is not a paid .tk.

    [*] If I did not get 25 visitors each month then the domain would be available to the market again.

    [*] If I registered it directly through .tk then the transfer fee is something like $195 compared to Monikers free push.

    I guess that's a must-read for the potential buyers of .tk domain names..

    I made the mistake of registering a domain straight through .tk

    I have just checked and the transfer out cost is USD 175.00.

    Moniker also has a cheaper .tk registration than going straight through dot tk.

    This is the problem with .TK domains, you can pay for them, but people will always associate a TK domain with those given away for free.

    Similar thing happen with .CC domains, also paid and also associated to uni.cc free service.
