How to Get A Free .Com Name
Ezyrewards has shutdown. The offer on this page is no longer valid. I am leaving this page up for archive reasons.
The following sites have gotten their domain through this article:
This site itself, http://www.garyshood.com was given a domain name garyshood.com completely free. This was done by using the advertising program EzyRewards. You can get a free .com name too, in about 3 days. The steps you can take to get your own free .com or .info are below.
Signup at EzyRewards. It is completely free. You are required to use real information when you signup. However, create a junk email right now that you will use to receive all the inevitable spam this offer contains. Also, it is required to use your real information. You must use a real phone number.
Upon signup, you can instantly start taking surveys. The surveys range form 1-3 pages and must be filled with real information. The companies have never called me but if you want to be sure, use the number you made at Privatephone.com instead.
Once you complete a survey, it will take a couple hours for the points to cash. If it says Pending next to the offer, that means you will be credited soon.
Download a toolbar or something that has the option to autofill forms. This can reduce your time taking greatly, as it does get pretty tedious reentering your details about 20 times. As soon as you have taken a good amount of surveys, wait for your points to total up.
Now heres the part where your spend your points. If you have 1200 points you can finally get your .com. You must make an account at Optinom.com before you order however. The registration takes 5 seconds and after you are complete, you are given an ID number. Head back to ezyrewards and order your 1200 point domain and put your Optinom ID number in the form. Make sure you have the correct ID and hit accept.
By doing this, in about 24 hours you will recieve $8.20 credit for your optinom account. When the cash is transferred over, you can now purchase your domain. After you purchase a domain, you can either configure it to your existing webhost, or you can get free webhosting from ezyrewards here. In order to signup, you will need to have already bought your domain. You can have up to 100 MB space and 2GB bandwidth absolutely free, just be sure to apply on the forums.
Once you get your domain, read Submit Your Site To Search Engines to increase your traffic.
Note: Some countries will need a referal to complete this. They are given fewer offers than United States/Australia residents. Despite this obstacle, one of my Canadian friends was still able to get his domain with referals, so don't let that stop you.
So you get 1 year of .com for free?
04-07-2006
That pretty much sums it up. Free .com for a year or more, depending on the amount of surveys or referrals. You can also get free hosting for as long as you have the .com name if needed.
07-04-2006
there has to be SOME catch of SOME sort. does the free-ness expire after like a month/year/something? if it is free forever, and you have tried it, and you know that its free forever, im in.
07-07-2006
The freeness is exactly one year for 1000 points it can be extended as long as you can keep getting points new offers for points are added often, so it is absolutely no problem in terms of renewal.
07-07-2006
I will lovely want a free .com i really need one plz and thanx
07-14-2006
i got the 1000 points, i clicked claim reward, and i got squat. no email, money added to my optinom account, nada. whats the delio?
07-17-2006
You will recieve the email within 24 hours. The money will be transferred in that time.
07-17-2006
i can't exactly talk to you on aim right now, cuz it kinda has a virus at the moment, but you know how the ezyrewards servers are down, is there any other free way i can do this?
07-20-2006
I don't know what the hell is going on with the site for now. If you can find another host right now you could probably do it though. There may be a way to configure your 50mb host thing that your old site was on, try that for now I guess. Otherwise the site should be up soon.
07-20-2006
thats all really cool, but i dont have the time etc to fill it out and all that. is there some way that you could do one for me? maybe we could reach some sort of agreement or summin.
07-25-2006
Nah, it doesn't even take long really. if you did all the surveys, I could guide you through the setup, but that's about it.
07-25-2006
Thanks again for all the help. BTW Everyone, I own DWCProductions.com. This is all 100% legit.
08-29-2006

10-09-2007
I'm having a bit of a problem. I do almost every survey on there, plus I have referrals, and most of the offers go back to Not Complete. I know I do every one of them right because some offers are pretty much exactly identical and one works but the other doesn't. My referral is http://www.ezyrewards.com/?id=193744 if there's any help you can do. Thanks.
10-10-2007
Make sure you're confirming emails if the survey sends out one.
10-10-2007
Hey, Gary definitely knows what he's talking about.
Here free really means free.
I got my site jjpsnet.com without to much trouble!
10-22-2007
When will you know when the points have been added to Optinom?
10-27-2007
You'll get an email plus you'll see the $8.20 in credit on your optinom account.
10-28-2007
Is it located on the home page of Optinom. If not, where?
10-28-2007
Login, check balance.

10-28-2007
Sounds great but I worry about who actually owns the domain when you have it for the year? Is it really yours or is it registered in Optimax's name. ie if they go bust we lose the domain or if their terms change and we dont get notification etc I guess this next question might be answered by the Optimax site.... if you want to keep the domain long term can you just pay to have it transferred or renewed? Whatever the amswers, thank so much Gary for letting us know!
11-28-2007
Please forgive my namesub of Optimax ..... I meant Optinom!! Doh!! True to my name again...oh and having the crap bugged out of me at the same time by a kid who wants to download the really cool runescape autotalker!!!! Who can think with all that excitement!! ;)) I tried to repost yesterday but your website only allows 1 comment. Probably a good thing! Thanks again Gary!
11-28-2007
I can has link? I used this article to get my website.
01-13-2008
I am pleased
02-10-2008
When it says you have to complete the offer almost all of the offers make you sign up for offers you have "qualified" for which only end up making you pay money for the "free" offers. Do you have to follow through with that in order to get points on ezyrewards?
02-18-2008
You shouldn't have to pay for any of the offers. They may process, if not, just try the others.
02-18-2008
people my website people plzzzzzzzzz
it's about big things]
02-26-2008
great now i can make a website
03-03-2008
I'm trying to do this at the minute to make a forum. I'm almost there on the EzyRewards points and i'm using some excellent free hosting that I found.
The free hosting package includes:
Unlimited Space
Unlimited Bandwidth
PHP and FTP uploading
If you wanna check it out yourself, I put the link as my website on this post. It really is great if you wanna make a free website.
03-10-2008
We got these domains from ezyrewards:
matespaces.net
getforkedproductions.com
and we're due to get another one!
the trick is to refer as many people as you can!
04-04-2008
The Awesome site for your needs
04-30-2008
06-15-2008
If you complete all the offers on ezyrewards.com the points do not equal up to a 1000 points how are you supposed to get a .com name if you can't even get the points you need?
06-19-2008
STOP , THIS TAKES YOUR PERSONAL INFROMATION , EVERY OFFER REQUIRES SOME INFORMATION ABOUT YOU.
06-26-2008
I want a .com address
07-05-2008
Ohh I'll Try

"Here free really means free."
O RLY?
For $15/year, I can get a domain name completely under my control (with option to renew). Another $12/year will get me a host with LOTS of cap, and oodles of web frameworks that install with the click of the mouse (Fantastico, etc). Let's add that up. Oh shit, $27/year to run a website?! How will I ever afford it? Alright, how about this "free" one?
Let's see, all we have to do is sign up for some junk accounts, fill out a bunch of boring surveys (you'll be done in minutes, we swear!), "accept" various odious offers, then give away actual valuable personal info (wait, I thought this was "free"!) that ends up who-knows-where. And after all that, when the year is up, WTF knows what'll happen (read the TOS *very carefully*, suckers).
I guess it's a good investment IF you are homeless, make less than minimum wage, or have an ethnic background with a reputation of niggardliness*, and want to reinforce that reputation. *shrug*
* Cue the functional illiterates with cries of racism.
09-17-2008
Or if you are younger and have no method of paying for things online without your parents help. In which case, I had this domain set, and then renewed for the next few years without paying a cent. Whatever works for you.
I understand reading must be difficult for you, but this free domain just credits a registrar the cost of one domain name ($8.20) and you can do whatever you want with it from there. You aren't even tied to this company once you get the domain, Optinom is a separate entity altogether.
09-21-2008
My good man,
The Internet is no place for ad hominem or other logical fallacies. Please address my criticism, not my supposed lack of reading skills. But I digress...
So parents who are unwilling to pay for their kids' hobbies (still just a trifle per year, compared to sports and other leisure activities that are typically covered without batting an eye) would prefer that their kids submit personal information to who-knows-where instead, incurring a potential SPAM flood or maybe inducing their PC to become part of a botnet?
My point is to make people think twice about "just signing up" for whatever; that's the mentality that leads to Internet suckitude (e.g. botnets created indirectly by people who "just downloaded and installed the free toolbar" or some other offer as part of the hoop-jumping to get their "free" stuff).
Moreover, there are options that DON'T make one jump through stupid, SPAM-promoting hoops, e.g. http://www.hostultra.com/free_signup.html (although you still have to leave "real" personal info).
09-25-2008
There aren't any downloads for this, so you're not going to be jacked up with any spyware through these offers. Most of them are just fill out the offer on a throw-away email account, get the points, register the domain.
Of course this is not the best payout, but it has helped people get domain names without paying anything. Someone with a paypal or credit card would view this as completely useless, but it has helped out younger people.
09-25-2008
Fair enough; I just wanted to discourage people from signing up for things willy-nilly without considering the consequences (as they rarely do -- it's human nature). The habits they learn (just "agree" to everything, jump through a "hoop" without checking what's beyond it, etc) are one of the reasons viruses and SPAM are so "successful".
Getting people to "just fill out the offer on a throw-away email account, get the points" teaches them to game the system -- should such misanthropic behaviour really be encouraged? Well, whatever, everyone has different moral standards. *shrug*
Anyway, I've said my piece. Take it easy, boss. :-]
10-01-2008
Yeah, this place is actually pretty clean. Everyone who goes on the forums knows the owner and he is very selective about the offers he puts up. They never involve downloading anything, but he knows he could be making more money that way.
10-01-2008
So you get 1 year of .com for free?
