Dear Members,

We are planning to give out free domains for Trap17 Members. This program will be in BETA as we are uncertain about the response.
FREE DOMAIN OFFER
Any one of the following will be allowed for 250 credits.
  1. 1 FREE DOMAIN per Member for 1 Year.
  2. 1 Year Free Renewal.
  3. Free Transfer
REQUIREMENTS
We deduct 250 Credits from every approved application. However, you must have 280 credits to apply. So that, after the deduction, you have 30 credits remaining in your account.

The following are the general rules.
  1. User must have Quality Posts.
  2. Every member is eligible for only 1 domain.
  3. Approval is on Staff's discretion.
  4. Website will be hosted by Xisto.
Credits Required to apply : 280 ( out of which only 250 would be deducted)

APPLICATION STEPS
To process the request as fast as possible, please follow the following steps :-
  1. Collect 280 Credits by making GENUINE QUALITY posts without copying. Spamming can lead to suspension of your account.
  2. Go to http://www.xidomains.com and SEARCH for your domain name.
  3. If Domain name is available or (if you want to transfer):-
    1. Go ahead with registration until you are asked to PAY.
    2. Close your browser window.
  4. Put an application for Free Domain at Trap17. (click for Free Domain Name)
FAQ : Frequently Asked Questions

Do you have to be hosted first and then collect the credits to get the domain?
Yes, it is necessary.

Will the domain be a .com or .net .org or other?
.com/.net/.org/.info allowed. More to be added soon.

If the one year of having this domain is over, do you lose your hosting and have to apply for a new one, or it will be replaced by a subdomain?
Members will have the opportunity to collect 250 credits again by the next year and apply for renewal before 1 month of expiry.
Members also have the option to manually RENEW their domain by payment at http://www.xidomains.com/

Are we allowed to choose one of the three options? Which mean I have to get 250 credits to get a domain and another 250 if I wanted to transfer it etc...?
No. 250 credits for REGISTRATION OR TRANSFER.

If we got a domain and hosting, do we have to pay a credit per day like an ordinary hosting account? Or we will get a year with the hosting offer for no credits per day/month?
Everything continues as before. You must have credits in your account to keep up your hosting.
How long will this offer be available?
This offer is in BETA stage. We cannot guarantee any date of expiry for this offer. Its under testing and depending on the response, We might change the rules in future.
How many members can apply for free domain?
1 Hosted Member => 1 Domain.

Holy cow...you're not kidding. m^e has a little over 800 credits right now biggrin.gif

I guess this is a fair amount (280 credits) for the members over at Trap17. If it works out well, hopefully they will migrate that system over here at Asta tongue.gif

I'm not sure if it would be so successful - from mine point of view, it is quite hard to build up 280 credits if each day you lose one, especially since Astahost has a narrower range of topics wink.gif

Wow, I'll need another 100 credits to get the free domain name. sad.gif
And what domain to get this time. I've got forum500.com, vwone.com, and handyphp.com so I'll have to really think about it. Maybe something non-related.

Well, this is a great deal for anyone that wishes to use it.

Thanks OpaQue.

Wow, i must say....this sounds like a great idea!!!

I do have a few questions about it however,

If this was to go into effect on astahost, I would assume that there would be more details about it? I mean like answers to some basic questions such as, are we allowed to transfer the domain to another service at some point? Say if after the year is up, and we don't have the number of credits to renew, and we would prefer to have the domain name transferred to somewhere else?

I am not sure if I would use this, as I already have a number of domain names, and I don't really think i need any more as of right now...but I definitely will say that this seems like a way to increase the number of posts and general activity in the forums by a ton as I am sure that there are plenty of people who would love to be able to get a free domain name.

Currently this free domain offer is in Beta stage at Trap17. Once I have the confirmation from OpaQue, I will let you know if AstaHost members can participate as well. Or, perhaps he meant for all gamma hosting members but made the announcement at Trap17 first... smile.gif

In any case, I thought AstaHost members should know what's going on at the sister's site with this mind blowing new service. And it won't be long until it reaches AstaHost.

Thank you.
