Smile Free .co.uk domain name

Hi,
I wanted to know if you can get a free .co.uk domain if you put an ad on your site? I can handle ads on my site for a free domain!

I am not too sure whether you can get a free .co.uk domain if you place any ads on your site, but here on this forum you can definitely get a free domain if you contribute to the forum with 30 quality posts...

You can get a .co.uk domain free if you have a website that has got good traffic. I would like to know URL for your website so that I can check its traffic stats from Alexa.

Does my website have good traffic
xc-clan.com

Already had a free domain for 30 posts, just a thought.. wondering
Also what must I do to transfer TeamX1.co.uk?

Auth code you require and domain unlocked is that it?
This would be my 5th domain hosted with webhosting.uk :p

To transfer a .co.uk domain name you will need to get its IPS tags changed to "ENOM" ( without quotes ) and inform us when you get that done.

We will accept your domain under our registration once it gets retagged.

O right.

So basically tell the host to "Change the IPS to ENOM" ?

Once your existing registrar changes the IPS tags then you should inform our billing department or me about it. We will accept your domain name under our registration.

They will be with your registrar but you had better check with Admin first to see if you qualify.

Your forum only has 11 users so it probably won't qualify on the basis of popularity - perhaps you have another site?

With the domain name registrar - look in your control panel.
