Why Register Now?To protect your business name or identity: There are
more than 100,000 .co.uk domains being registered every month. Speculators
are registering many domain names each day in the eventuality of
re-selling them at vast profits. Even if you have no immediate plans for a
website you should register your business name to allow you to promote
your business online in the future. Buying your name direct from a
recognised domain name registration service such as Purplenames could save
you a vast amount of money when you do decide to sell your products
online. To
drive more visitors to your website: When
registering your domain name, it is vital to consider all the possible
extensions available to prevent others from purchasing the domain name.
Assume your company, Olivers Olives, imports and sells olive oil from your
office in Edinburgh. Your success at local level has led you to explore
the great benefits of selling your product online. To avoid any possible
conflicts of brand recognition, it would be wise to register
www.oliversolives.com, .co.uk and .net. It would also be wise to register
www.olivers-olives.com, .co.uk and .net. Another
consideration would be to register names that relate to your business.
Using the example above, www.oliveoilimporter.com, .co.uk and .net would
be relative to your core business. You could then simply re-direct the
traffic from these domain names to your main site. To
create a memorable e-mail address: Most
Internet Service Providers offer free e-mail addresses as a part of their
service. Often these free e-mail addresses are of convenience only to the
Internet Service Provider. For example, your free e-mail address may look
something like this. yourname@yourcompany.internetserviceprovider.com If you
were to register www.yourcompany.com, you can keep your old e-mail address
and set up anyname@yourcompany.com as your e-mail alias in your
Purplenames control panel in a few seconds. So, you can tell everyone to
send e-mail to anyname@yourcompany.com and receive those e-mails at your
old e-mail address. Another advantage is that if you were to find a cheaper, faster or better
ISP with a different e-mail address, you could simply change the re-direction
of e-mails for anyname@yourcompany.com to your new ISP's e-mail address
without having to contact all those in your address book to inform them
of your change of e-mail address. |
