Top 12 free domain name registrar !

We all want a domain. If you have your own website, you’re itching to get rid of the long url and a domain is like having a tattoo – it sets you apart while it’s yours. You can express your artsy side with your name, let people know what or who you’re a fan of, promote your business or just bliss out over something cute – all for ten bucks!

But wait, does it really have to cost any money? Granted, if you run a business you’re going to want a top-level, com/net/org to look professional. But if you’re just a blogger in high school or college with a WordPress site, or a foodie recommending local eateries, you may be wasting precious money registering and renewing a domain name if you don’t really need one.

Now, I’m an old lady. In my day, domains were free to register. I don’t think anyone had any idea that this would turn into a global business. So, domains quickly bounced around the price scale, I’ve seen everything from 50 cents in my day to 99 dollars for a new, regular registered domain. Mostly, though, ever since Godaddy began it’s hovered around about 10 bucks and that’s seemed to set the standard price for the rest of the web.

So what if you don’t have the 10 bucks? Or you don’t want to spend it? That’s where the freebies come in, and I know you love freebies because you’re greedy, like me, lol!

Remember, these are not in order of greatness, the order is entirely random:

#1. The first is a domain everyone is probably familiar with, and that’s top level .TK. I’m sure in the past you’ve used one to redirect to your myspace or webs.com page, but did you know they now offer free DNS support? That’s right, .tk domains now work just like real domain names, and yes they are still free! Sidenote, they’re one of the few who really do crack down on their TOS, so if you don’t get 20 hits per 90 days they WILL cancel your domain (you are free to reregister), and if you run a site that uses celebrity images or other copyrighted materials and they find out, once again, they WILL cancel your domain. If you just have a regular blog or a family website, you shouldn’t have any problems with them. Obviously, if you run a PSD, blend, fanart or celebrity fansite this is not the domain for you.

#2. Number two is CO.CC, which has in the last year or so become a great resource for anyone wanting a free web url that looks and works just like a real domain. I use them for several small websites, and I haven’t had any problems with them. You get two free ‘domains’, with the ability to edit and use DNS as well as url forwarding. If you want more you can donate less than $5 to get several extra domains. They renew for free.

#3. Another seemingly stable registrar is CZ.CC, which allows you 5 free domains, free DNS support (or forwarding, if you prefer, along with a host of other abilities). They, like all of the domains on this list, are currently free from ads or pop ups and look enough like a real domain to make a blog owner happy. I’ve used them for a few months and have no complaints.

#4. CE.MS is one I’ve only found out about it in the last two weeks, but it’s much like cz.cc (down to using the same script to setup domains), and it seems to be pretty easy to use. Also free and ad-free, uses DNS and url forwarding. I can’t speak on it’s reliability just yet but so far so good. They allow you to register 3 domains and renewal is free.

#5. Lydia gave me this url, she registered her domain at GV.VG, which is very much like the other registrars and offers your standard no ads, 5 free domains, full DNS support as well as forwarding and whatnot. I registered one of their domains about two weeks ago and haven’t had any problems, but they seem to be fairly new yet!

#6. I found out about this one from Jon, who has one of their domains for his blog. He registered it at FR.AM, which seems to be a small-time operation run by an individual. You can choose your short url from their subdomains: fr.am, mm.am, and nl.am – all can be registered from their site for free, but are actually part of our next registrar:

#7. I have been using these guys for ages! You can register your free subdomain at FREEDNS.AFRAID.ORG, it uses your nameservers and there aren’t any ads, plus you get fast propagation and domain-looking urls like yourname.us.to — the downside is that they only use 1 nameserver, not great if you want to use webmail or pop3 with your domain name.

#8. One of the older subdomain-domains on the net is BIZ.LY, which is free and does use your nameservers, but these guys not only force a link back (which is not that big a deal), but the kicker is that you have to already have a website with at least 100 unique daily hits to even apply and they still may reject you. Too many hoops to jump through for yourname.biz.ly, don’t you think?

#9. Number 9 is one of the newer slew like cz.cc who use a standardized script to let you register their CO.TV domains. So far so good with these guys, I’ve used them for several months without incident. You’re limited to 3 domain names, but they use your nameservers or url forwarding if you prefer and you can renew them for free I believe.

#10. Another standardized script subdomain is VV.CC, which limits you to 5 domains each registerable for 2 years at a time. This also uses url forwarding or your own nameservers, and the 2 domains I have registered with them have been doing insanely well for free domains. Unlike older domains like tk and cjb.net, these guys are somewhat new and so don’t have the stigma of spam attatched to them where Google is concerned, or that’s how it seems. My first vv.cc got a pagerank of 1 within a month of being up!

#11. For anyone who’s been on the net for a few years, CJB.NETwill probably bring back a lot of (mostly bad) memories. They were one of the first widly used short urls, and easily one of the most popular. They carried ads and malware, and probably still do, but now they boast use of your own nameservers – that is, if you can figure out how to set them once you’ve signed up. I couldn’t, and I’m usually pretty good at that. :/

#12. Last, but certainly not least, is another oldie but a goodie which offers you your own subdomain of UNIC.CC. They used to have a limit of one per customer I think, but Madeline uses them and said she’s got 2 with them on the same account and room for more. I believe they request that you link back but I don’t think it’s manditory, and they are ad-free as well as giving you the option of DNS management or url forwarding. They’ve been around forever, and have proved to be very stable over the years.

Well, that’s my list. I’m sure there are a few I’ve missed, but here’s what I’ve used in the past. Domains are great, but a real, pay domain isn’t always necessary. I hope this list helps you out a bit!

Ways to Improve Website Traffic Simple Tips

Website traffic is a main concern for every webmaster, getting visitors to the website is everybody dream, but in practically it is very difficult to do that, so let’s discuss about how to improve your website traffic in top ten ways. I have already write Top ten search engine optimization tips, which can help you in finding the on-page optimization issues. This guide will help you in understanding the ways to improve your traffic, this article deals with various issues and ideas about website promoting methods. Please leave your suggestions and comments below.

How to Improve website Traffic:

1) Dynamic and Original Content
2) Link Building Strategies
3) Referral Programs
4) Online Advertising
5) Publicity
6) Blogging
7) Lead generation and follow up
Contests and Polls
9) Social Media marketing
10) Offline Marketing

1) Dynamic and Original Content

Everyone seems to be seeking the key to more Web site content. In today’s information-driven society, great, dynamic content is the key. People are usually online because they’re looking for something relationships, information, products, or services. Content is the way they find what they’re looking for.
Think about it. A decade or so ago, if you wanted to find information on anything, you had to go to the library or the bookstore to find that information. Today, finding what you seek is as close as your computer. Just open a Web browser, type a few words, and what you’re looking for is sitting right in front of you. Very little information can’t be found online these days.

2) Link Building Strategies

You wouldn’t think that the links on your site would make too much difference to the traffic on your site, but they do. The Web is an interconnected group of pages. The connection from one page to another comes in the form of a link. So, both on your site and from others’ sites, links are an essential part of drawing people in.
One of the easiest ways to begin building a linking strategy is to contact the owners of Web sites that you like and ask them for a reciprocal link. Reciprocal links are when you put a link to that site on your page in exchange for a link back to your Web site. Reciprocal linking strategies are very common on the Web.

3) Referral Programs

Creating a referral program isn’t too difficult. The first thing you need to do is determine what you can afford to invest in the program. Typically, those who refer your site are paid anywhere from about a penny-a-click to as much as $5 per click or more. Some referral programs promise a flat fee for any referral that results in a purchase.
Your budget is the determining factor here, but remember this: The more you pay, the more likely others will want to refer your site to their site visitors. They’re sending traffic away from their site to yours, so you must make it worth the referrers’ efforts.

4) Online Advertising

If you haven’t already done it, check out Adwords. Adwords is the advertiser’s arm of AdSense. With AdWords, you can bid to show your advertisements based on keywords that you select. Remember: Although Adwords is an advertising program, it’s not good just for products. You can use Adwords with your services or even content Web sites, too. The point of using AdWords is to advertise your site to users who might not otherwise find you. What you sell or provide on that site is up to you.
Advertising probably isn’t the most effective method of getting your name out there — positive word of mouth and great content are your best shot but if you have some cash to spend on getting your name known, it’s definitely a strategy that you should consider.

5) Publicity

On the Web, publicity usually takes the form of word-of-mouth type publicity. Someone sees your Web site and then tells someone else who happens to have a blog, so that person writes a blog post about it, which is then picked up by other bloggers, and it then catches the eye of some radio host or newspaper journalist who then runs a brief article or makes mention of your site to their audience.
Professionals set aside several hours each week to devote to public relations and publicity efforts. You should do the same if you’re truly serious about creating a real brand with your Web site that people will think of and recognize when they consider topics related to your site and products.

6) Blogging

Blogs have become so popular that even corporations now use them to advertise products, services, and events or just to keep readers updated on what’s happening with the company. The downside though is that blogs have become so popular that every person who even thinks they might possibly have something of interest to say has a blog.
Be creative, but also think in terms of what appeals to potential blog readers. If your blog is about a group of teens that are band groupies, a contest where the giveaway is a copy of War and Peace might not be the best idea. If the prize in your contest is a $25 iTunes card, the response could be much more than you even dare to hope for.

7) Lead generation and follow up

How can generating leads help you build traffic on your site? It’s easy, really. If you’re collecting leads, you can keep your site in front of potential visitors more often.
That does require follow-up, though. Although some Web site owners are great at collecting leads, they don’t do much with them you should. If you have a collection of people who have willingly given you their e-mail address, you should be using that address as often as you can to keep in touch with those potential visitors.

Contests and Polls

Deciding what the prizes are for your contest is very important. Think of what appeals to people who would be interested in your site. I mention earlier in the chapter that if your site’s about music, giving away copies of Warand Peace just won’t cut it because such a contest wouldn’t target the specific people that you want to see your site.
And also the polls, using this you stick the visitor at your website and make him come again and again to check the stuff.

9) Social Media marketing

Social marketing is a relatively new concept that’s based on a phenomenon that’s grown despite the fact that no marketing experts saw it coming, and it’s all based on social networks, such as those brought into being by MySpace and Facebook.
If you really want to see how social media marketing works, check out some of the organizations that have successful sites on MySpace or Facebook Christian bands like Three Days Grace, for example. To get to the point where a social media marketing strategy is successful requires a lot of effort and attention, but the results can be very much worth the time you put into developing your place on the network.
And also don’t forget to implement the social media optimization techniques for your website.

10) Offline Marketing

Offline marketing strategies can be anything from press releases to T-shirts to direct mailings. Think about all the commercials that you see during the Super Bowl. How many of those commercials had Web site addresses attached to them? Did you know that those companies paid millions of dollars to have those commercials shown? You may not be in a position to pay millions of dollars to have your Web address plastered all over the television, but that doesn’t mean you should avoid offline advertising methods.
Some of the things that you can do on a very small budget include putting magnetic signs on the side of your car, wearing T-shirts with your Web address on them, doing radio interviews,
sending out press releases, sponsoring a little-league sports team, and the list goes on nearly forever.
So this about the best ten ways to improve website traffic, please leave your suggestions and comments below in the comments section.
