It's short. It's smart. It's snappy.

The newest British domain extension, .uk, is a great choice for anybody in the UK or anybody looking to target the UK market. It’s perfect for new projects and established online businesses and is set to become the new standard for UK based websites.

The .uk domain name shortens your web address, giving your visitors a quicker and easier way to access your website. As Nominet, the Registry for the UK domain family, say, ‘Shorter is Sweeter’.

Frequently asked questions about .uk

  • How do I register a .uk domain?

    It's super easy - simply check the availability of your domain, using our Domain Search tool. If it's available, add it to your basket, pop in a couple of details and, voila - your new .uk domain name will be fully registered within minutes.

  • Why should I buy a .uk domain, if I already have a .co.uk?

    You’ve worked hard to build your business and your brand so it’s important that you protect your online presence. Unfortunately, it’s easy for a cyber-squatter to pick up your matching .uk domain and attempt to cause havoc for your business. Likewise, someone could easily snap up your domain name, and approach you to buy it, at a premium price.

    So, even if you do have a .co.uk domain name, we would always recommend protecting your business, by registering the most popular domain extensions, like .uk and .com.
