Can you make the domain somehow personalized to you so you can say its for an online resume to further your education and employability? If you happen to host other personal stuff that won’t cost you anything extra, just make sure you have a fancy looking CV at the root.
Comment on In search for free domain I got one but some questions
itsaj26744@programming.dev 10 months agoBecause I am school student (16yr) from INDIA. Here u have to give record of each penny to parents and If say them that I just want a domain for self hosting my personal stuff I will not be able to say something else.

I was where you are too and 2$/month or even per year seemed crazy to me if I could get it for free
If you’re at home and want to point to your home IP, but it constantly changes, the easiest is Dynamic DNS.
You can find more.
If you have a stable IP, there also free top level domains .TK / .ML / .GA / .CF / .GQ over at www.freenom.com . Their frontend is down sometimes, but once you have a domain and are point it to an IP, you should be dandy.
Good luck :)

Thnx, Btw I use a Cellular data (and sometimes wifi of neighbors.) How to know My IP remains same or keep changing?

Check whatismyipaddress.com to see your IP address once you’re connected to either network, but with a high likelihood, it’s almost certainly different IPs. In that case, Dynamic DNS is probably best.
But if you’re using your neighbor’s wifi, I doubt there’s a way for you to host stuff unless you have access to their routers, can open ports 80 (HTTP) and 443 (HTTPS), and forward them to your server. It’s best to use hardware you control (including the router).
