Please fill me in with your comments in regards to this new non-profit web site related to domain names.
http://www.free-domainnames.org/
I would be very interested to know what FreeWebspace Community thinks of such idea and may be offers the directions of future development.

Plain and simple. I know I have seen something similiar in the past. I don't see it getting much traffic but then again you never know either.

Can you please remember sites that you have seen in the past? I do not want to repeat anybody. And, how do you estimate the traffic?

I would be happy to tell you the sites but unfortunately it has been a few months ago. It was just on sites that had a ton of other things on them and stuff. That is what I mean't.
How I estimate the traffic is just from my opinion. I just don't that someone is going to want to read about what a domain is and how it works when a ton of people already know all that stuff. However I could be wrong as well.

So, you did not find any new information for yourself, links? My guess is that nobody actually knows much about the command-administrative centralized domain name system. Internet users have very blury ideas of ICANN, registries and registrars. They do not understand who controls what and who has the power to change. Internet users also think that registrars are all separate and they do not need any VeriSign services to create any new .com domain name. If you knew all of this I am actually impressed because I have never met a person who clearly understands the end-user approach to domain name registration. Did you also know about DomainZero?

This looks like it could be a very useful service. Just add a "buffer" between the top, bottom, and in between content so it looks better and is easier to read.

Yeah I know all about the ICANN, Verisign, and the things that involve them and every domain name in the world. I read about it one day from a website I stumbled upon (again I dont remember which one). The last time I checked DomainZero is not up no more. It's domain is even up for sale unless someone bought it by now. Talk to you guys and girls later on sometime.

Thanks, I will add pictures in the future and will try make it more readable. Please be more specific where I should add the buffer and any other ideas so that it would be more convenient.

DomainZero was offering free domain names but then they started to charge $20 or $25 (i do not remember) domain name registration per year. Then, suddenly, they have just disappeared. Anyone knows similar companies that are currently operational? I would like to add them to this web site.

I highly doubt that you will find any company registering domain names totally 100% free. Especially with out something in return. Mainly like ads and such.

Yes. In particular, I am asking for those companies where we would be able to register domain names for free by placing their ads on our domain names such as currently dead DomainZero example.

New Registrars are added. Please let me know what you think about 'true cost to own' comparison?

Gold number of domain registrars and cut-off limits are introduced in:
Domain Registrars Comparison Chart (http://www.free-domainnames.org/registrar-comparison-chart.htm)
Please take a look.
