Any way to get free domain name?

    I know. I know. Domains are cheap, and not that expensive, however, right now I am in a bind, and I do not have the money. I was thinking maybe with some kind of coupon or something there is someway to get a domain name. All I have right now is around $1.20 or something of that sort...I know, I need to get some more money. Thanks

    GoDaddy currently have a special offer where you can get a .INFO domain for 99 cents.

    Well, I think I need a .com for what I am trying to do. Thanks though..I mean, if all fails, I'll just have to wait a little until I get enough money to buy a domain. I was just hoping this was an option as I was trying to get started ASAP.

    I dont mean any offense at all by this, but if you cannot come up with the money for a domain name registration how do you plan to take care of hosting, promotion, advertising etc.?

    Maybe you could run an auction for a signature link, (but you will probably not be able to get $9 for 3 months until your post count is higher)

    Also, just in case you're wondering..The reason I am unable to buy at this moment is because I am trying to save up $150 in order to signup for this sport league I am trying to do. I have been looking for work these past few days..The $150 was due last Saturday, and I still have not yet paid :\. I get some money via check, so that helps me out some, but usually around $100 which I won't be getting until around the 18th of June.

    I already have hosting, and as far as promotion and advertising I would try to do everything I can for free until I get some money in order to pay for it.

    Please accept my apology for my useless post. I was only trying to help you and to find out what the situation was.

    I do not know of any way to get a free domain name.

    Oh, it is alright..I didn't mean to sound rude or anything. I really did not want to make this thread as I know I look like a complete idiot, however, I am not. I was just seeing if something could happen..I didn't have my hopes up at all. You can't do anything but hope :)

    I just saw a thread where a guy is selling domain names for one dollar. He might have something you are interested in using.

    I have a host. I am 16 years old so don't think I am some guy that makes a living off the internet, and can not afford a domain name..I have to spend whatever money I get normally. I saw people give out loans, etc so I figured maybe I could get one. I have one adsense site right now making around .50/day. It is a proxy. I want to get some other sites out there in hopes to make more money because I know the proxy clicks will go down drastically.

    Can you write articles because I am sure you can make enough in a few days to buy your domain. The other options is to, if you are in the United States is to sign up for Mircrosoft's officelive.com, they offer a free domain which you can transfer when you close your account. You need a credit card but they do not charge you. The problem is that it limits what you can do, you must use there sitebuiler to build your site. It is teh only way I know to get a free domain.

    I know that there is a forum around, owned by someone on here, where if you make about 400 posts, then they will register a free domain for you... however I can't actually remember the link to the forum at the moment! Also, I think if you went around the buy/sell forum, you would probably be able to get enough money to buy a domain name in about an hour or two, there are always small jobs that are just waiting to be done:)
