How do free website domains work?

516 views

When you buy a domain from Google Domains or GoDaddy, you have to pay a price for the domain and then you get access to the domain for a specific amount of time but some domain registrar like [Freenom]([http://freenom.com/](http://freenom.com/)) allow you to get access to some domains for free. How does those work and does Freenom pay for those domains?

If you check on their website they explain it themselves. They are backed by Kima Ventures, a venture capital firm. This means they are getting money from the investment firm that is expecting them to grow and become more valuable in the future; they don’t need to make money today for that to happen so the reality is they are just losing money.
