Hi Guys

Just select the bulk register & type the domain(s) you want.

ex. name.be << you must insert .be

Then click submit, it will then show the whois & $0.00 for the price :-)

Also unlike other .be free registrar's you can register as many as you like :-)

Goodluck

do you need a credit card for registerfly?

[stuffradio]

Yo, I tried it... didn't end up working in the end. I used Paypal and they refunded it. So don't bother with them if that happens to you.

emm, dont know why that happened, I registered 77 domains with them about 2 days ago & it never asked me once for a payment. Try to contact them. :-)

[Antonio]

it is just like the .info domain ,free for one year. but what about the domain after one year ? pay for it?

[Mr.X]

do you need a credit card for registerfly?
Ya, you need to have creditcard to signup for a free .be domain or go to trade.be to register without creditcard ;):P

[nikopa]

I registered today 23 domains without any creditcard info... first register account and then domains...

How long it takes to domains activate? freebe did instantly but registerfly didnt

Registerfly always has nice offers, and this is yet another one of them since not all registrars have chosen to provide people with free .be domains. However, it saddens me that people are registering so many domains which I'm sure they won't even use. Either way, that's none of my business, but I'd like to warn everyone that unlimited domains aren't really allowed. (So, if you've registered 11+ domains, be careful.)


I registered 77 domains with them

Just so everyone knows, one of the registerfly (http://registerfly.com) support people said, "Thousands of customers have taken advantage of this offer, however a substantial number have also violated the policy of registering excessive numbers of names and in certain cases have secured several hundred names which is not allowed."

In addition, DNS.BE (http://www.dns.be/en/home.php?n=383) had to say the following about their offer:


Surveys show that end-users often overestimate the complexity of using their own domain name and do not always feel comfortable registering a domain name. In order to prove the contrary and explain the use and the advantages of a .be domain name DNS BE decided to launch an advertising campaign through which the end-user could already get introduced to the domain name and realise how easy it is to register a .be domain name. DNS BE has started offering her agents free .be domain names from 1 November 2005 till 31 January 2006. In order to benefit from this offer the interested agents have to fulfil several criteria to satisfy the end user.

Each subscribed agent decides on the price (from 0 EUR) he will ask to the end-user when one or more .be domain names are registered from 1 November 2005 till 31 January 2006, for a one-year period. The agent can thus offer the registration of one or more .be domain names or offer a reduced price on the usual cost. This promotion does not take additional services and VAT into consideration. The agent is free to extend his offer or not.

We asked our agents to avoid warehousing and cybersquatting through reasonably limiting the number of .be domain names per end-user.

If an agent does not fulfil his commitment and does not respect the promotions he talks about on his website, DNS BE will contact him and act in consequence.

On www.encorelibre.be and www.istnogvrij.be, you will find all the information about a .be domain name registration and the list of the agents taking part in the advertising campaign.

According to e3internet.ru (http://www.e3internet.ru/), the limit is 10 as stated in their website:


Q. How many domains can I order?

A. 10. The Belgium Registry is also checking the incoming applications to make sure people do not hoard these domains. If they think you have taken more than 10 domains they will take away all .be domains registered to you. This includes those registered through other Regsistrars.

They've also stated a similar thing in other parts of their website,


Yes, we're sure you can find a way around the 10 domains rule in this system but keep in mind that the Belgium Registry is also checking applications. If they suspect you of having over 10, they will take away all of your .be registrations and put them back into the pool.

Perhaps that is so for you. The only logical reason I could find for this is that maybe since I think you have a company, maybe they're letting you have all those domains to give some to your customers? I'm not sure. Maybe you just got lucky.

Their latest newsletter stated the following (which confirms what I had said earlier):

You are limited to a maximum of 10 registrations per account. Due to previous issues of clients exceeding this limit we will be closely monitoring registrations of be promotional names.

The same thing here :confused4

[Becca]

Did you register with registerfly? and are you *sure* your domains are pointing to the correct nameservers? You should double check. If you have further problems, you can check with your host. If everything is okay on their side, you can contact registerfly's support.

[MHN]

how do i make the .be domain go to a site?

[sep]

why cant peopel just pay for a normal domain?

[TaintedPearls]

registering with registerfly never worked for me. i eventually used eurodns.
