Domain Names

Your domain name is the website address that people type in, and what the internet search engines like Google & Bing link to.

.gov.uk or .org.uk ?

Local government bodies are able to register a suitable chosen name as a .gov.uk, for example www.bonbyparishcouncil.gov.uk.  See Moving to a .gov.uk domain.

It seems likely that .gov.uk may become compulsory in the near future so we would never recommend choosing a .org.uk (or a .co.uk) and can help you move over.

Already have a domain name?

We can set that up for you with the new website - either take on management of it, or tell your supplier how to set it up for your new website. We prefer to take over management to ensure it is not allowed to accidentally expire! However we can move you to a .gov.uk to vastly improve your official online presence.
