onlinepersona , 5 months ago 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. https://freedns.afraid.org/ https://www.noip.com/free You can find more. If you have a stable IP, there also free top level domains .TK / .ML / .GA / .CF / .GQ over at https://www.freenom.com/ .
