    I've got a domain I may buy but its a .org.uk would a key phrase hold much value? It has 2,400 local searches pm

    The resale value generally not as good .co.uk but in terms of development and ranking for the UK there very useful

    thats useful to know, im not expecting to make a bomb just a bit of pocket money, i also see there are some good .me.uk but it seems they might be worth less than .org.uk

    Its comes fourth on my search.

    As a side, those voucher code sites are fecking useless and a complete waste of time. Ive had a look at a few and not one has ever, ever had a code that wasnt hopelessly out of date.

    Agreed, I never manage to find a code through them most of the time. Are you a member on a cashback site like Quidco? I just go through them now when making a purchase, that way it gives you the affiliate commission as well as a valid voucher if there is one :)

    Quidco pays for my Xmas most years to be honest. - No hassle, no fuss. You just cant trust those shitty voucher code sites.

    Could not agree more - I forking hate them with a vengance too. Seems there just geared towards Jeremy Kyle show types who want to save 2p on a packet of teabags.

    Methinks the writing is on the wall for them in the next year or two already - I pity anyone who's invested money in that hyped crap...


    - I feel the same with most of the price comparison sites.

    I do use them but if they get me to click on their aff link and not giving me a proper code I remove the cookies, don't want them to get for providing me with fuck allm

    Voucher sites are great, but these days their quality has been going down big time and all they seem to care about is getting clicks and not about providing visitors with quality content and codes.

    By the way, found a great Easyjet code, AUGURI2010 which gives you 7 off, pretty handy as I'm flying Amsterdam-Belfast twice a month :)

    I've just spoke to him, he said he would do you a code in the morning, no problem if you can't wait, will forward it to you to use next time.
