how to Register Free Domain for your Website?

According to a short definition and not going into very technical details the domain name is a “string of letters and numbers that is used to name organizations, computers and addresses on the internet“, so basically, the domain name is the easy to remember name of web address or website.

Fast development and deep penetration of Internet into all aspects of our life motivates businesses and even many individuals to go online i.e. to create their business or personal websites that all should have their own domain name to make their sites easier to locate the web.

We should also note that nowadays domain name is not only a name of the website but it more and more often becomes a well known brand (e.g.Google.com, Yahoo.com), a trade name, or identity of a well known Internet resource (e.g. PRchecker.info, the domain name of this site).

So that it becomes quite important to choose a proper domain name that is short, easy to remember and represents the website very well. No doubt large companies can afford to buy even very expensive short names from the current owners, however, that’s not the case for personal or even small business sites owners who do not want to invest too much making their first steps on the Web.

Although that is not so expensive to purchase a domain name with such most popular extensions like .com, .net, .org, .biz, .info, etc. there are still cases when the site owner does not want or cannot afford to buy a domain name even at quite low price, and in this case there is such option as free domain name that we discuss in this article.

Please note that there are a lot of free domain name scams on the web that trick Internet users offering free domains and making them fill in dozens of web forms, sing up for tons of “free offers”, etc. however, finally they never give away a promised free domain. Be aware. You’ve been warned.

In this article we propose to consider the following option to register a free domain name, whose that are not scams and can be used safely:

• ·       A completely free domain registration
• ·       A free domain name included with purchase of some service

By completely free domain name we understand the registration of domain name that does not require to pay a single cent for this or associated (included, additional) services. So that is possible to get a free domain without paying a single cent.

Such completely free domain services are usually powered by companies that provide free and low cost web services (such as free website hosting, unlimited shared hosting, VPS hosting, low cost domain registration, etc.) and thus they are able to pay the costs of free service offering extended/advanced services for a small or not very small fee. Such totally free domain services are recommended for small personal website owners, or for those who just start on the web and thus do not want to spend money at first.

You can check list of free domain providers that we recommend to consider at the best free domains page where we provide some extended information about the best domain name free services that we personally tested and can assure they are legit and solid services.

As for the second option, there is a number of quite well known and reputable web hosting providers that offer to register a free domain name in case the customer purchases a yearly paid web hosting plan.
In case that is required to save on domain name registration and also to buy a web hosting plan at a reduced yearly price, that might be a good idea to check and carefully consider the following web hosts that are listed in PRchecker.info best web hosting list and thus probably worth some attention:

·       JustHost – Just one hosting plan, Anytime Money Back Guarantee;

·       iPage – Green web hosting, Drag and Drop Site Builde included;

·       HostGator – Unlimited web hosting plans, cPanel hosting control panel;

However, when it comes to a web site for the online business we do not recommend to become attracted with the ease of registering a free domain name, but we’d suggest to spend some time learning the matter and to buy a cheap domain name yourself e.g. via Godaddy or perhaps to buy not cheap but a perfectly matching domain e.g. via Sedo domain name marketplace.
