Is your domain name working hard enough?

Currently, whether you have registered a .com or a .co.uk domain there are no restrictions if you would like to register both versions of your domain name - and many people do!.

Of course, the choice is all a matter of your preference - .com is often regarded as "International" where the .co.uk domain is deemed to be "UK only", usually it depends on the target market.

Whilst, the .com domain is recognised world wide, it is easier to remember and to type, and there is a whole world full of people who could register it before you do!

If your target is primarily the UK market then registering just the .co.uk domain would seem to be the obvious choice. The .co.uk instantly identifies you as a UK company and often, given a list of URLs in a search engine, people will choose a domain / URL with their country code. Therefore, it follows that if you want to extend your target market then registering your domain with other country-code top-level domains (ccTLD) will expand your target audience.

Registering both .com and .co.uk (and others such as .at, .dk, .es, .eu, .ie, .it, .nz, .se etc) domain names in fact makes very good sense - it stops anyone else from registering your name and leaves it ready for you to use either right away or in the future. Did you know that with Web Forwarding you can have as many domain names as you like pointing to a single website - see Web Forwarding below.

Email Forwarding

Background

The ccTLD for Denmark, an abbreviation for Internet Country Code Top-Level Domain, is .dk. It is managed by the DK-Hostmaster who, though there are no restrictions, need to approve the domain name registered for. If a Name Server needs to be tested, 500 Danish Krona plus VAT will be charged. This can be important seeing as if there is no approved or functioning name servers attached to the domain name, it may be deleted by the Danish Registry. They must be set up in advance and approved.

Once registered, an e-mail will be sent which will tell of the instructions on how to activate the domain name. There are Three Months from the date of registration in which you can activate the domain name, but if you wait over this time it will be deleted by the Danish Registry. You can register directly under .dk and the domain names are available under a 'first come, first served' basis. They can be registered from 1-3 years, or 5 years.

From 2007, a new rule was applied to domain names which are registered through DK Hostmaster. This was a suspension rule and is for the event of typo squatting. This refers to when a domain name is registered with an error, perhaps when a character or two is changed. If the domain name is familiar and already existing, it won't be allowed.
