Sharing this as a practical resource for anyone who uses throwaway domains for testing, staging, or small side projects.
RayName currently offers up to 3 free domain registrations for registered users on selected extensions:
- .eu.cc
- .gu.cc
- .us.cc
What stood out to me is that this can be useful for:
- test environments
- landing page experiments
- side projects
- temporary setups where you don’t want to spend on a full paid registration first
They also have a small .com launch promo running, but honestly the more interesting part here is the free-domain option for lightweight use cases.
Important detail: not every term qualifies, and premium terms are excluded, so it’s worth checking the actual registration result before planning around it.

If anyone here tries it, I’d be curious whether you see this as useful mainly for testing, or if you’d also use it for small live projects.
