Establish Customer Base on a Global Base
Creating a United Kingdom domain will not only help you establish a customer base locally but will also help establush a global customer base. Businesses like to do business locally, a domain name which establishes its local credentials or places itself within the correct industry will convey an element of trust and therefore increase trade. For exmaple if a business within United Kingdom sees a domain with .gov.uk, they are much more likely to trust the company and trade with the company. In addition to this it will boost the SEO page ranks in search engines which are country / industry specific.
NB: Please do not type "www" or the British name suffix, eg. ".gov.uk", Therefore if interested in "www.bb-online.gov.uk" type "bb-online" only.
Also do remember British names must only contain the following characters: a b c d e f g h i j k l m n o p q r s t u v w x y z - 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9, Spaces are NOT ALLOWED.
