      Just an idea to make a list of all the .org.uk domains that are used for a business or not a charity. (not a personal website)

      The a lot of the first pages of a Google search for .org.uk here produce charities like below.

      I'm after a list of businesses to support a trend towards them but not Charities, Trusts, Councils, Foundations etc...........

      Here's a few but looking for a more definite business related list.


      And I know before someone posts it a .org.uk domain is meant for Charities, Trusts, Councils, Foundation etc but the trend will move I just want to know if any businesses are using them yet if so how many.

      Okely dokely. I will start to compile a list of the ones I know of and will post back here in due course. I think many will soon start to use lll.org.uks as time goes by.

      I have seen a party/fancy dress shop using partyzone.org.uk

      Nice to see !!!

      If .org.uk was meant to be for non profit organizations then they should have stuck restrictions on it but they didn't !!!

      Companies will use them so let's get regging and selling !!!

      Love the sarcism Admin lol

      just came across this
      cushions.org.uk

      first page of google results out of 13 million for 'cushions'

      fact is a developed .org.uk will perform as well as pretty much anything else

      ..........

      EDIT: Oooops, sorry, you meant .org.uk's being used just for business/profit? (easily confused!).
