Think it's too soon to say if they'll dominate, but I'm confident they'll coexist. It doesn't surprise me that the tech savvies, especially domainers, will be migrating to .uk. I think Domainlore was the first site I saw using .uk. Can you imagine if Amazon shifted over :p

There's definitely value in a decent domain, I don't think anyone on here would argue that. But the technical value has obviously waned in favour of content. In my view, and it's what I've just said, the value is more of an emotional / psychological one. In short, in business, a great domain is...

Coming at this more from an end user who's dabbled here and there in selling. Do you not think it's like most commodities, a lot will depend on perception? I expect enough people over time will reg enough .uk's, enough for it to muddy the waters. Why, because most decent .co.uk's are already...

My thoughts exactly. That factored into some of the buying decisions of my .uk buys. If the .co.uk is undeveloped or it's for sale, then there's no G footprint, no direct domain competition. Maybe not in the short term (.co.uk) but longer term I do think there's a potential to dilute value. But...

:D True. Was thinking more in the business sections, but fair point. Wasn't even a peep was there. Hasn't every domainer held on to at least one domain too long? :D Mmmm, not sure. .com and .net are obviously fundamentally different. Different in characters, plus the intentions for the use...

Picked this up this morning, thought it was worth a fiver? Thoughts, does the hyphen kill it, or more importantly does the hyphen degrade any magic Google juice? TIA

My guess is there will be 100s if not 1000s of plumbers who wouldn't mind that domain and seeing it slapped on the side of their van. But it's a matter of how much they're willing to pay for it. It would only be the larger outfits who would entertain it at this price. The lads I've spoken to...

How so? Do you mean that you're surprised end users have come to you this early on? Or do you mean the lack of awareness? Tbh, I wondered if there would even be something about it in the national news last week. I was a little surprised that my (full) name was snapped up by godaddy last week...

Interestingly Sun Bingo doesn't have an EU/UK Trademark, although in their case I'm sure DRS would go in favour of the Sun... but then what about the MASSIVE RoR period? Surely the folks judging a DRS should bare this in mind. I really don't know, not had any experiences with DRS, but I would...

He/they caught a lot more than what's listed now. Sure he'll drip feed them out... Make more £££ that way.

Sorry to digress a little, but it's on topic. What are peoples' thoughts on the old hyphen - these days? Providing they stack up with decent content and they're not spammy sites with a couple of pages... are they penalised at all? Cheers * Just to add, I noticed quite a few hyphens were picked...

On the list, milf, threesome and pain Mucky bugger :D

I was looking at it too, would have gone well with my bladerunnner :D It's tagged to www.domainname.at. They don't appear to have any sort of catching service offered so they probably caught it for themselves. Shoot them an email?

Thanks for your reply Aaron, but it seems to be locked up at the mo, it's not allowing the registration. Nominet aren't available on a Saturday are they? Cheers, Mike

Can anybody please help me reg a .uk domain please?

Just picked up charteredengineer... Kicking myself, a great surname was available to hand reg last night and I thought, nah... will be nice and make someone's day when they can pick their name up. Was still available earlier today... it was niggling me so just looked to see what was on the...

Are you emailing people who ordered with you, and you were successful, to let them know the catch is going through to auction? Thanks :)

Did some tags do a lot better than others? Granted you guys will have more knowledge but from what I've checked it seems a pretty split field?

Publicly, broadly yes, but you can reg them at some places, Crazy Domains is one.

Assuming you've used him before and he looked after you? Tbh I've always found IP / domain name lawyers the absolute pits. In two cases where lawyers served me a "without prejudice" they both lied, not just twisted the truth, but flat out concocted a right load of twoddle to try and make me out...
