Register a free domain on Dot TK

If you have a blog on the Internet and you are tired to spell out your long web address to your friends and family, then Dot TK is the solution of all your problems. Dot TK works with all existing blog websites. Once you have set up your blog and you have received your personal blog web address, you can RENAME this web address with your own unique domain name. Totally cool! Why not rename your blog today?

What is a domain name?


A domain name is a name that you use to get to a website. Usually it ends with .COM or with your local national extension.

What is Dot TK?

Dot TK is a FREE domain registry for all websites on the Internet. It has exactly the same power as other domain extensions, but it's free! Because it's free, millions of others have been using .TK domains since 2001, which makes .TK powerful and very recognizable.

How will it help me?

Using a short Dot TK domain name allows others to find your website more easily. You can link your Dot TK domain name to any website, webpage, homepage, web profile, blog, web gallery or image gallery, it doesn't matter. Registration is easy!

Why is it free?

If you create your domain name and you add a TiKilink (a short and powerful description of your website), your website is linked to all other Dot TK domains. This increases the number of visitors to your website. You can always decide to turn of the TiKilinks in My Dot TK, for free. But if you do that, you cannot use TiKinet for your domain and you won't see an increase of visitors to your website, so why not leave your TiKilinks on!

What do I need for Dot TK?

1. You need to have your own website, webpage, blog, photo gallery or web profile.
2. Make up your own Dot TK name
3. Check and see if your Dot TK is still available
4. Setup your Dot TK to point users to your own website, webpage, blog, photo gallery or web profile
