Free domain (ie. dot.tk) is it reliable?

My God pay the money for a real domain lots of codes and coupons out there for first-time registration,

Remember if you need more domains, you can have as many sub domain A records as you wish,

Just don't be stupid and try to use all the sub domains as landing page for your main domain cuz Google will spank your ass.

As WSS said if they can't afford a domain maybe they have bigger issues going on.

@JSCL is co.nr reliable?
@ehab $5 renewal is fine, anything more than $7 will be too much.

Seriously?

.tk is legit but there have been stories of popular .tks been seized once they're popular. May just be forum legends.

It's not a rumour. They seized one of my domains a couple of years ago for no good reason. Not high traffic but a 'premium' domain.

Did they give you any option to pay for it or something like that?

No it just all of a sudden disappeared from my panel. Sent them en email but never heard back from them. It's not a big deal as with a free service you know in advance this can happen. I'm still using them when I need a temporary domain or something for development though.

Same thing happened to me. .Ga and .Tk domain just disappeared and no response

You only need to work for an hour on minimum wage (in most countries) to renew a domain for a year.
