    Recommended registrars for co uk's?

    Thanks. Daily looks good at 4.15 per domain per single year, slightly cheaper than 123. Any restrictions/bad things I should know about them? Ps to admin, sorry posted this in the wrong forum, meant it for general stuff.

    Recommended registrars for co uk's?

    I have been using Moniker for a few years for all my domains but I am not sure if they are great for co uk because I think they outsource them and there are some restrictions on the management of uk domains there (e.g. you can't push them between accounts). So I am planning on moving all my uk...

    goodtimes.pm poster - beginning of the end?

    You're right, I don't have a big portfolio of co.uk's and I'm very glad of it because if Nominet proceeds with the .uk release next year the value of a .co.uk will I believe diminish, possibly greatly. If there wasn't general concern about that why do you think this forum currently has a whole...

    goodtimes.pm poster - beginning of the end?

    This sounds very true - I think that we're going to see a two tier market in which every real brand has to own their .com - as long as Facebook, Amazon, Google use .com as their flagship tld they will remain must-have properties. Everything else is just on a nice-to-have campaign specific...

    goodtimes.pm poster - beginning of the end?

    Yes definitely a question rather than a statement. But the evidence (circumstantial admittedly) is stacking up. I went out to central London this evening and happened to see a huge poster on the Tube platform for a computer game - the main url was worldoftanks.eu. The next poster along, had...

    goodtimes.pm poster - beginning of the end?

    The point is that they don't have to buy the .co.uk. They just invest in promoting the dot whatever they go with and eventually (3-5 years?) consumers will generally learn that there is no default tld any more. The dot becomes a different form of punctuation - a space rather than a full stop...

    goodtimes.pm poster - beginning of the end?

    Yes, probably true which may mean that the internet is finally catching up with the way things are done in the 'other world' - the norms are set by the advertisers with money and the creatives that spend it rather than ICANN/Nominet or SEO consultants. I'm not saying it will 'take over the...

    goodtimes.pm poster - beginning of the end?

    Just seen a bus stop poster for drinkaware using the weird tld of .pm (promoting the app at the bottom of the poster) http://c3322972.r72.cf0.rackcdn.com/42569_DA_A3%20Poster_TellingAJoke%20%282%29.jpg With the .uk and the new gTLD issues that are coming in next year I've always thought before...

    Wanted: Service Proper WordPress developer needed for 2 sites

    WP Doctors are a bit too busy to take it on at the moment - I don't suppose anyone else has a recommendation for a WP specialist?

    Who buys domain names anyway?

    I have a feeling, looking at sold lists that the market is underpinned (large volume, low prices) by domainers buying to invest/flip but that the big money is spent by: - end users looking to acquire the right name for their new venture. When a branding company is committed to a name, even a...

    Wanted: Service Proper WordPress developer needed for 2 sites

    Not got one fixed but for my site we're talking £100s rather than £1000s. For my contact's site I have no idea, I will just put them in touch.

    Wanted: Service Proper WordPress developer needed for 2 sites

    I'm looking for someone to work on two projects, one for me, one for a contact of mine. My project is for help choosing and customising a WP theme that will enable me to preview and sell downloadable audio and video content via PayPal. (the content I think will be hosted in the cloud and will...
