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.

Background

The ccTLD, meaning the country code top - level domain, for Hungary is .hu. Applications and registrations are submitted and managed by accredited registrars.

If applying for a .hu domain name space, it is necessary that have possession over a resident permit for Hungary or any country within the European Union.

Names are given to registrants on a 'first come, first serve' basis. As soon as a name is applied for and verified, any other applications sent for the same name are deleted. This is to stop any confusion.

The following conditions must be read and met when deciding on the name for your domain space:

• The minimum amount of characters allowed is 2, the maximum being 40. This does not include 'http://www.' or '.hu'. It is suggested that the name is kept to 5 - 10 characters.
• Roman alphabet characters (a-z) can be used along with lower case characters from the Hungarian alphabet with accent. These are as follows: á, é, í, ó, ö, ő, ú, ü, and ű.
• Digits 0-9 can be used.
• The only specialized character that is acceptable in the domain name is the hyphen (-) yet they cannot be placed at the end of beginning of the name. Two hyphens cannot follow after each other.

There are second level names that are open for registration by the general public. They are as follows:

Statistics tell us that there are 450.000 registered .hu domain names.
