Search Google for $0.50 domains and you can get .com/org/net domains for a $0.50USD for the first year from companies like Register or Network Solutions.
The downside is you have to be very careful when you sign up as to not forget to remove the $100 worth of junk they throw in your shopping cart, but a few months after you register you can then transfer your domain to another registrar so you don't have to renew at their ridiculous $30-$40 price tag.
The upside is you don't have to spam your Twitter followers.

Only valid for 24 hours, at $10 a piece i'm sure theres not a whole lot of people waiting to register names... so this is probably going to cause a bunch of people to register names they don't care about :(

Slightly OT but what is the real cost of storing an entry in a database ? Domain names always seemed very expensive to me.

Just this month I saw sale for .eu domains per 1EUR. What's up with these specials? They sure have to pay much more for them.

If I understand the promo correctly, that's a whole lot of twitter spam that needs to go out to unlock this deal.

Some providers make often 1$ .com or .org without asking you spamming Twitter followers... They may be estimate that a tweet has a ROI of 5$. This is not the case, because influencers will not retweet to avoid paying 5$. My twitter followers worth better content.

They lost me at the word Twitter.

A nice deal, but it's not clear if this is only for those that retweet, or everyone. Or whether it's for a year or per year (the latter would be quite something).
If only there were decent .com's and .net's still left ;-)

Ugh, talk about bad timing...
I just spent the last week moving all of my domains from Godaddy to Name cheap. I even looked for a coupon before I did it.

http://iwantmyname.com is not as cheap but they provide a bullshit-free service, contrary to most domain peddlers.

For 1 year or per year?
