To get  domain like .com, .net, .org, .info and so on you need to buy those.
+ .net stands for "network," and is most commonly used by Internet service providers, Web-hosting companies or other businesses that are directly involved in the infrastructure of the Internet.
+ .org stands for "organization," and is primarily used by non-profits groups or trade associations.
+ .biz is used for small business Web sites.
+ .info is for credible resource Web sites and signifies a "resource" web site.
+ .us is for American Web sites. It has the largest amount of available names in inventory.
+ .cc was originally the country code for Coco's Keeling Islands.
+ .bz was originally designated as the country code for Belize, but is now commonly used by small business who can't get the name they want using the .biz extension.
+ .tv is for rich content/multi-media Web sites, commonly used within the entertainment or media industry.
+ .gs is the country code for the South Georgia & South Sandwich Islands.
+ .ms is the country code for Montserrat.
+ .tc is the country code for the Turks & Caicos Islands.
+ .vg is the country code for the British Virgin Islands.
+ .ws was originally designated as the country code for Western Samoa, but is now commonly used as an acronym for "Web sites."
+ .name is the only domain extension specifically designed for personal use.
Edit : Free domain > co.cc

Around 0.99 usd per year  | Most proxy sites are .info... now I understand why =P and .99 usd meaning a dollar usd per year?
With the money that we've donated since the reset, gamerzneeds.info can stay alive for 3 more years
