    Hi chimpysmith,

    You first need to sign up for the hosting service. If on sign up they ask for your domain, put in your existing tk domain.
    After signing up for hosting, go to tk and enter the name servers provided by the hosting service so that your tk domain name gets pointed to your hosting server. Pointing your domain to another server does not involve a fee.
    Then wait about 24 to 48 hours. After that you will be able to work on building or uploading your website to the hosting server.

    Hello, I have tried this, would you possibly be able to do this for me? I can just change the passwords after?

    Thanks. Please pm if so. It would be greatly appreciated.

    On a side note, and as far as I know, if you got a free TK domain you cannot change nameservers, just forward it to the free hosting service that has to be setup under a free subdomain if you want everything for free.

    If you paid for your TK domain, then the above guidance is the way to go :rolleyes:

    Are you sure free domain can not change nameservers.? like .co.tk or co.cc? If yes then please explain how to forward the domain to hosting services...
