- BugMeNot2, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1Sorry guys - we are going to have to put this on hold for a little while while we move this site to faster servers. We'll be clearing the back log and should have this up again tomorrow. Thanks Nick - e3

- joeuttaro, on 06/06/2008, -0/+1Just keep it free for a year and then transfer your .be domain to godaddy for ultimate rates! :)

That is a downer... Maybe $3.95 at godaddy isn't that bad afterall! - iskatebad914, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0tobeornotto.be

sort of a bait and switch?? sure it's free for a year... hope you don't grow too attached with the domains though, or you'll be paying up. - matx, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0the site died when i clicked submit :@

- hankbeasley, on 04/22/2009, -0/+0Got Mine!
- ColdWind, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Gah! I'm getting 7 but server is busy!
- t0llenz, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0www.tk
Exactly. Totally free. - Chazzer3, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Dead.....
- op12, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0No catch, except it's a .be domain name and it expires soon with high renewal cost. Yep, no strings at all.
- sedition, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0"Update: The .be registry WHOIS has been overwhelmed today and is now reporting incorrectly. We have disabled WHOIS checks here to allow you to proceed with your order. Unfortunately this may mean we falsely report your chosen domain as being available."
hahah - rc_collins, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0I ordered digg.be and the whole thing went boom. The power of digg is too much for it.
- Mach5, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0dont digg it! then the unwashed masses will know!
- SePP, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Belgium Rocks !! :p
- DardanAeneas, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0I hate these free & cheap domain name deals... it just means all the good ones will be taken by fools who don't really want or need the name, but will probably charge you through the nose to get it from them...
- blatch, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0The catch is the renewal.
- Googled, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0www.tk
yeah who wants a 15 second nag screen everytime you visit a tk site - keane, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Words that end in 'be'
http://www.onelook.com/?w=*be&scwo=1&sswo=1 - apotropaic, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0yep I just registered dardanaeneas.be! I will only sell for $1,000,000!
- fastfinge, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0The website linked by the original article is down. You can try be.be, but no english version. Also, as far as I can tell, this is just web forwarding crap. I'd like control of my own dns records, thanks. www.dot.tk has the same problem. The only free dns you can get that I know of is from freedns.afraid.org. Otherwise you need to spend the money on a domain.
- chosenone-, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0DUDE! Tell us that it'll be FREE for only ONE year. Thank you.
- Cheirdal, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0I can't wait to reserve a dot be name! Oh wait..Yes I can.
- XsolidusX, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0I just registered, but I got a french confirmation email. Whats up with that?
- GR3G, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0How do you know if you get the name you've requested?
- digitaltrav, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0dead.
- uniquepeek, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0No Catch, they bit off more than they can chew and the planning sucked just like they do.
- samaza, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0hehe just go to be.be and try filling out a form in Belgium. I got mine accepted after 3 attempts. Think of it as a game
- BugMeNot2, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0^Wrap the quote above with quotation marks.
- burke, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0"(No Catch)"
Ummm.... Other than the part where you have to pay in January, right? - Eric4, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0"Sorry guys - we are going to have to put this on hold for a little while while we move this site to faster servers.

- NickWilsdon, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0>Maybe $3.95 at godaddy isn't that bad afterall!
Godaddy actually charge $17.49 per .be domain (even at the moment). We are charging $20 per year to give everyone a fair price. We don't charge for name server changes or for transfer away (leaving fees).
The promotion will be running until Jan 31st. There is still a large queue on the registry but we're working through it. Thanks - Nick e3
P.s. yes the power of Digg was quite impressive. We hit nearly 35k sessions before we went. - NickWilsdon, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0http://www.granitecanyon.com - is a very good free DNS service.
http://www.easydns.com/ - also offer a free service
