old free domain hosts

[Abizaga]

So as a teenager, I used to need free domain hosts since I couldn't afford the real deal. There were so many out at the time, what were some free domains/sub-domains you used or use?

Are you referring to actual web hosts or the free domain registrars?

As far as web hosts, 000webhost was probably the most popular free option, but it was absolute garbage.

As far as domain registrars, who could forget about .tk, .co.cc, .co.nr, and more? Those domains were everywhere like a decade ago.

I'm referring to free registrars like .co.nr, .tk and .java-fan.com sorry about that. Can't say I ever saw .co.cc used alot though.

I'm trying to remember some of the other ones I used to usr but that was a long time ago.

Do you guys remember when Google completely banned the .co.cc domain extension entirely from their search results?

Google Bans A Complete Subdomain From Index: co.cc

We know Google reserves the right to ban all sites on a host if the host seems to have an unusual percentage of spammy sites on it. Well...

I can't believe that was over nine years ago.

I remember many people were discussing DNTemple back in the day but they seem to have shut down. It used to be 100 posts for a TLD. Although I would rather just pay for a domain, many people were active on that forum.

Those were classics back in the day. I miss them and wish they'd come back.
