which domain is better?

macnpaul · Aug 20, 2011

Evening all.

I'm building a mini site for a product, but all the best exact match domains were taken. I managed to get:

product-name.org.uk & productname.me

I might put sites on both, but based on your experience, which would you say is the better domain?

If I had to choose - and giving up or choosing something else wasn't an option - I'd go for the org.uk

The .org.uk will rank better, but unless this is your market I'd probably find another product where you can get a non-hyphen .org.uk or a hyphen .co.uk.

Are you looking to target UK clients? If so, .org.uk of course.

.org.uk extension is always better than .me extension. many people apart from domaining community hardly recognize .me

.org.uk extension every time!

The progression is...
.co.uk
--- massive gap ---
.co.uk hyphenated (or arguably .org.uk)
--- big gap ---
.org.uk hyphenated
--- gigantic gap ---
.me.uk
--- big gap ---
Any non-uk, "non-obvious" extensions
