Just saying, you should really change the title to include subdomains; most of these "domain" providers actually only provide subdomains (not ICANN recognized 2nd level names like eu.org)

I also thinks to rename it to Free Domain/Sub-Domain Providers list, well thank you for that.

Currently, it doesn't seem to work, but that because they just updated it and they're probably working on it! By my opinion, it's the best free domain provider. They have a really good DNS system. It's like GoDaddys. It's like no limits.
The founder also made http://bestspace.co Which offers kinda cheap hosting. I think they have a free plan too! It's self hosted in Ireland I think. Everything is made by a youtuber by name of howCode.
You missed to read that part

Yeah but it should work soon! So maybe he should be prepared to add it to the list when it works again.

Also worth a mention is afraid.org
More extensive article posted about afraid here.
https://post4vps.com/thread-314-page-2.html
I'm realizing now maybe that post would have better fit here or in it's own thread. But still on topic enough hopefully.
What I like best about afraid is that if you use their service to provide DNS for a TLD (free if you own it) you can offer free subdomains to any afraid member which if people are making good sites should help to improve organic search results.
RE: Free Domains/Sub-Domains Providers list - Lampard - 05-25-2016
I suggest people to do not use Freenom, they give domains then take it back, which really sucks. They take when your domain gets more traffic, so if you wanna make a good website then its better to buy a domain.

A much useful list. Thanks for posting it.
@TrK if you have a bank account and you're above 18 years of age you do need a pan amcard anyways. But nowadays it's KYC all around.
RE: Free Domains/Sub-Domains Providers list - deanhills - 06-15-2018
@TrK Brilliant list. My experience has been mostly with dot.tk so far. Haven't seen a number of the free domain sites ever before. Definitely will try them out - I like to collect domains
OK here is my feedback. Just noticed that the OP is from 2015, so obviously there have been some changes that I picked up on:
1. eu.org looks very limited and even more complicated to apply than a few years back when I tried to apply for the first time. Looks as though there aren't that many sub-domains left, and the rules for application seem to have become more complicated too. I'm not that eager to have an eu.org domain to go to that length of trouble to get one. But for others who want one, I know that there are a number of people who have had positive results, provided they were patient and prepared to wait for a while.
2. registry.cu.cc link is dead - maybe it changed to something different?
3. freeavailabledomains.com - works great. Successfully applied for a free sub-domain - process was effortless and was prompted for either name servers or A records. Haven't used the domain yet but am looking forward to doing so soon.
4. 4fd.us - also works effortlessly. I hesitated at the point where it wants more information than I think it needs. It maintains a whois server.
5. aa.am - this is my favourite out of the new free domain registrars I've worked through as I like the aa.am sub-domain. Registration also worked perfect. Still to use the domain.
6. freenom - I've always liked freenom - and have been working with dot.tk ever since the original free dot.cc went under - think it was around 2009. Does come with limitation though in that if you manage to get a certain amount of traffic which will add value to the domain, freenom may take it back without warning and make it a paid domain.
7. co.nr - looks like the free service closed on 1 May 2018
8. subdomain.com - works as well as the aa.am and freeavailabledomains.cu free sub-domains. Haven't opened an account yet, as would like to try out the ones I've opened first.
9. nc.me - defaults to Namecheap for Education - https://nc.me/
Looks as though I've just found myself two new domains. Will be interesting to see how they work out.
Am wondering what can go wrong as this is so easy? Has to be reliable though as the free domain registrars I registered with have been around for a long time. However can't help but wondering though. Like there must be something in it for the free domain registrars, what do they get out of the deal?
