.tk domain names are great!!! I have NO idea why people think they are so bad!!! You don't have to have ads on you site!! You have the choice to turn them off!! Just go to Dot TK Linker Promo on you .tk account and click 'No thanks.' to ads. They will be instantly disabled and your site will be ad free!! This works on free accounts!!! Just look at my sites:
k-f2.tk narutogirl.tk They are both under .tk free accounts and they are both ad free!!! .tk is a top level domain and it's just like .com, but it's free! It also requires NO credit card. Did I mention, it's free!!! |

Dot.Tk is NOT a TLD because .tk is not a real domain name. It is just a redirect service that redirects your subdomain to the dot.tk of your choice. TLD's include .com, .biz, .tv, .org, .net, .info and many others. And I diagree with it being like .com because unlike .com, .tk always shows your url and never other pages. Like if you have a game page labled www.****.trap17/games you'd only see www.****.tk, which some people won't mind, but does become a hassel when people must go the home page of your site just to visit that link. Still .tk isn't all bad, but I'm sticking with My real TLD domain and not some redirect service!
Also someone else made an exact topic like this one so instead of making another topic you could have just replied to it with this info!! This post has been edited by coolduck123456: Oct 25 2006, 11:34 PM |

The biggest problem I have with those re-direct services is the Frame they place around your page.
That is why the page URL never changes, because they have it trapped inside a Frameset. And the Frameset can contain ads. Also, it stops the individual page URLs from being referenced as per above comments. The Bots don't index the Frames properly and therefore, the Search Engine Bots never index anything but your index page, if that, even. Because they know which pages will be framed, I'll bet they rarely, if ever, visit those domains. Unlike the sub-domans here at the Trap. Due to the volume of searchable sites and the traffic through this Forum, the Google Bots (and others) seek out your site for indexing much more regularly. |

.tk domains are of no use,this domains actually increase the ranking of the .tk website and you actually have no control over the domain,if your site content is powerful and it starts to get substantial amount of traffic then they will ask you to pay for it,and if you don't they can also duplicate your site and can run as theirs and you wont be able to do much

I'm back... well, sort of. Group: [HOSTED] Posts: 697 Joined: 26-December 05 From: somewhere in the middle of nowhere Member No.: 16,226 |
dot.tk has lots of ads. i know someone who uses dot.tk to redirect his site and the ads are quite annoying as well. like the other person has said, i'd rather not use a redirection url just for the purpose of shortening the url of my site. and besides, i'm planning on buying a .org or .com for my trap site
