Thinking of using a new business name ending in . com , my thinking is it will be easier to remember and it would be same as web domain name !
Good idea or not ?

Hi,

I have just registered a .co.uk domain names & was thinking of buying .com as well but did not as .com is for international I am led to believe. I also considered .co that is due out in July.

people will remember your business name , good thinking

what u calling ur self

i bought bmwc.co.uk and it was too hard for me to remember lol so bought bluemonkeywindowcleaning.co.uk

I am just using using personal name at the moment , but I am looking at using something that is catchy but not too gimicky if you catch my drift lol .

if both are available I would say register both of them 
.co.uk is the best for the uk, but some people do type .com by mistake so cover both bases.

Cover your bases and get .co.uk & .com

If you only get one of them, someone could go and buy the other and possibly steal business from you.

Its happened with one of the guys here.

Good points, thanks guys .

yep me I've got .com and some numpty who trades under another name bought .co.uk, built a website and put his own number on it. He was a mate I thought.  :

Do you mean that you want to call your business ie "windowcleaner.com" as opposed to simply "windowcleaner" so that your whole business name IS the web address?

Yes

Yes 

In that case yes as long as it is short like "h2o.com" "we-clean-windows.com" however it will depend on whether it is availiable as I doubt something like the first will be.

i spose if you are trying to go nationwide websites make sense but if just a regular small biz not much point . iv got a website(cos everybody else does !!)  and its raked in lots of work but i still feel i get bags more  work just by being out on the streets .
