Well I'm going to make a site strictly for the best top of the line free software. Like Gimp being an alternative to PhotoShop, Cinelerra, and Wax 2.0 being an alternative to After Effects, and so on.

So if anyone of you can help me out with some domain ideas that'd be great, and if you'd like I'll make you a mod on the site, and we can work together as a team.

Here's some I thought of, but not liking the names at all.
alternativesource.tk
alternativeapps.tk
freeapps.tk
bestfreeapps.tk
topfreeapps.tk

So far alternativeapps.tk is what I'm looking at, but I need more ideas.

What with the .tk top level domain?


I'd highly recommend trying to get a .com

You get better traffic with a .com

Very few people are going to remember that .tk tld

As far as domain names most of the ones i thought of are used...
the only one with a .com available is

myfreewaresource.com

I use the .tk domain, cause I have absolutely no money at all, and no source of income so I can't buy a domain name, and even if I did I wouldn't have enough to keep it up, and I'm using byethost with dot.tk (with the name servers of course) so I can have a free website, and do pretty much whatever I want on the site, except I can't have a webmail service, or my own email for my site on it. So it has it's advantages, and dis advantages.

freeware, and free software are to different things, and I don't want people thinking the site will only have freeware, or more freeware that free software. Not to mention when I usually see a site that has free in the domain I think it's a scam.

Anyway I decided I'd go with alternativeapps.tk I registered it earlier, but I gotta wait for it to show up.

I use byethost.com which is hosted by vistapanel.net where I can get

Sub-Domains: 50
Add-on Domains: 50
Parked Domains: 50
MySQL Databases: 50
Webspace: 5632MB
and
Bandwidth: 204800 MB

I then use the name servers on byethost
ns1.byet.org
ns2.byet.org
ns3.byet.org
ns4.byet.org
ns5.byet.org

and use them on dot.tk as setting the option use my own dns server and then I park the domain on byethost again, and that's where I got the domain for free.

It sounds complicated, but it really isn't I still gotta arrange time to do a tutorial on it.
