It is very simple to get a free domain name. If you are going to run a blog or website using your own domain name most likely you will need a web host as well. Some web hosts will actually give you a free domain name if you choose their hosting platform.
First of all you should not choose a web hosting company just because they are going to give you a free domain name. Often the word “free” is anything but free. You need a web hosting company that is impeccably reliable and reasonable. I never choose the cheapest web host because if your site is down just one day you can lose enough money and hair to negate any savings you may have received going for the “cheap” hosting.
However, if all things are equal and one web hosting company is willing to throw a free domain name into the deal then it can be worth committing to that web hosting company.
In any case no matter which hosting company you use you still own the domain name and can move to another hosting company at any time.
If you are just getting started with your blog or website I suggest Bluehost. They have packages starting at $3.95 per month which is quite reasonable. More importantly they are a solid reliable web host which is hosting over 2 million websites.
There are one of the few web hosting companies recommended by WordPress.org.
You can check and see if the domain name you want is available using the form below. Once you find the domain name you want just follow through and order the hosting and the domain name is free!
