Free .site, .online and .store domains from Namecheap!

nikhm2n · October 13

I recently came across Namecheap's promo which lets you register .site domains for free with the promo code: FREEDOMAIN25. I have previously used the promo, and it works great. Only one per customer

Edit: The same promo code also works for .online, and .store.

Their promo page

Edit#2: You will be charged USD 0.2, the ICANN fee on all three domains.

u still have to pay the 0.2$ icann fee so technically not free unless im doing something wrong

@gooblermaster It seems you do have to pay the USD 0.2 - the ICANN fee. I'll update the post. I had forgotten about that, sorry.

Don't forget to turn off automatic renewal or the free offer will burn a hole in your pocket.

Not worth the money.

Those renewal prices are remarkable!

zjkal · October 25

The renewal price is too expensive; I give up.

It works. I paid just 0.20 for .online. It's bargain for just 1 year (a test domain), don't renew it. Thanks.

The renewal fee is always the most interesting.

If you're looking for a cheap domain you can compare prices on https://tldes.com/cheapest-domains.

The cheapest offer:
.pp.ua are free (no renewal fee either) at https://nic.ua/en/domains/.pp.ua

They do require that you confirm your identity by adding a payment card. They charge 1UAH ($0.02) and return the payment.

A real phone number is required, as you need it to activate the domain.

I just registered one to test it. You can set your own nameservers or use theirs, and you can transfer the domain to other registrars, e.g. Regery, if needed.

So far, it looks like a good way to get a relatively short domain name for free.
