Are there free domains for websites out there, like .com, .net, .org?

Do you use an amount of PBPP to get the domain or do you pay real money for it?

Subdomains are free, and ***.ru domains are free (not sure if the .com.ru domains are working yet, though).

Sometimes people sell domains in Bargain Boutique, for VSP. Trel used to sell/auction domains for VSP too, for a while. If you've got enough VSP (in the thousands), it's likely you'll be able to find someone willing to register a domain for you.

Do you have to pay for domains like .com, .net, or .org??

And, if you read the information on domains, it tells you about billing If you type in a .ru domain, will it be free?

It will be free, but I think you pay an extra 100 pbpp at time of sign up for a ***.ru domain. If you wanted a normal domain, .info domains are on clearance at most places for 3 or 4 bucks.

*.***.ru domains are not offered on LLP at all anymore.

If you still see documentation (outside of posts on the forum) that tells about them being offered please point me to it so I can remove it.

Generally, no. What kind of domain do you want? I might register one for you in exchange for something. We could work something out.

Also, i hope this isn't against the rules, but I have gotten about 10 domains from www.hostbidder.com . It takes some time to post there and get the points, but they deliver domains in your name, and that you control. However, the owner is almost never on. SO don't expect any support at all. The hosting there is bad too, don't get it. You can also exchange about 2,000 points for $15, which I am about to take advantage of and get $30 to renew some domains.

Domains I registered at hostbidder:
www.moviefiles.org ( I am about to transfer it to a better registrar/renew)
www.audiofiles.org ( I am about to transfer it to a better registrar/renew)
www.freehostdirectory.net (same)
www.hostingspace.org (same)
www.clanspace.org (same)
www.charitypixel.net (same)
www.gthuniverse.com (letting expire, was a fansite for a popular MMO)

all of which are undeveloped Smile.

But now you know that they deliver what they promise. You get a max of 80 points a day,and domains are 950 points. You can do the math Very Happy. Again, hope this isn't considered spam or anything. I vouch for the website. And the last downer? THe place is FILLED to the brim with arabian/middle east users who can barely speak english and make spam posts everywhere to get points.

I offered to buy you a .info domain, but you never replied. Thats close to top level right? or do you only want a .com .net .org ?
