I'm sure there's a lot sites like these nowadays, but this one's the best I've tried so far.
http://hostbidder.com Just like trap17, it requires posting in exchange for services, free domain name registration to be exact. It requires 1,200HB points for a .com .net .ord domain or 400HB points for a .info domain. 1,200HB points might sound too hard to accomplish but they have threads which rewards 10points per reply so basically, you can get a domain after your 120th post. What's good about this is that they register the domain under your name, so you own it. The only downside of this is the rule which that they've implemented a week ago is that you'll only be rewarded for 3 posts per day so that maximum points you get per day would be 30HB$. But on a brighter side, they also have an HB$ market where you can offer services in exchange for HB$. I know it may take a while to earn that domain, but atleast it's free, and atleast it becomes truly yours.  |

It's becomes yours and you could stop posting after that, but then it expires in a year so you'd have to get posting again to earn another 1200HB$ good enough for another year's registration. But then again, you have a whole year to earn that 1200HB$ again so it's not that hard on our part.
And oh, by the way, please be reminded that not all threads reward 10points per post. It only works in the Graphics, Website Building & Reviews forum so you might wanna focus your attention in replying to threads in that forum if you want uour domain the soonest possible time. It's not so hard though since they've got a lot of sites which you could review. So in way, you're helping someone out by commenting on his layout and you're one step closer to your domain at the same time. Good luck!

Desperately seeking "any key" to continue...  Group: Admin Posts: 3,382 Joined: 23-April 05 From: Trap17 storage box Member No.: 6,042 |
It's a good idea--similar to ezrewards site.
But this rule: QUOTE Two Rules You must place a link to [sic]hostbidder[sic] on the home page of any site you put on your free domain name You must post your feedback in our Thanks and Testimonials Forum Failure to comply with these rules may result in the loss of your domain name. has me concerned...and instead of allowing it graciously use the domain name it comes with an ultimatum. Domain names are not that expensive these days. Just about under $10 you can own your own domain without any strings attached. I suppose this is a great way to get your own domain for those who does not have a credit card to purchase a domain through one of registrars. |

Unlike Trap17's hosting credits system, they don't have a fair way of recording posts
. That's why Trap17's unique, and you never have to worry about Trap17 ripping you off, because the system is always fair.
