The first main thing in a business is choosing a domain name and established it. What's wrong with that I hear you say? It would be nothing if you are just a small business looking to trade online right now.

Expanding your business is always in your mind and with that you might lead to do it online. The brand is what makes your business special. That would be now named as your electronic shop front. Brand name should always be easy to memorize because that will help your customers find you easily. When registering a domain name initially, all businesses are well advised to make sure that they can get their brand as their domain name.

Internet users are fond of looking and searching websites with .com or.co.ik. If you still don't have any brand name yet, then this will surely help you to come up with a good and effective brand name. So what happens when you have a brand, you have your domain name, but then someone else sneakily uses your brand as part of their domain?

Buying as many versions of your domain as possible like the my-company-name hyphenated version as well as the mycompanyname version is a ...
... good start. But if you were still able to grab the .info.co.org then you will be tightly securing your company name in the internet. No company can use the your company's name now. It only takes $0.99 to $15.00 to buy a domain, if you are willing to pay extra amount like for instance $100 to buy lots of them then it will also mean that problems will not surely occur in the future. As an added level of security you can register your domain name, as well as your brand, as a trademark, but being a web company, we're not in much of a position to go throwing legal advice around.

What we can say is that you should be vigilant about the use of your brand by others, particularly where domains are concerned. Cyber squatting, as it is popularly known, sees unscrupulous characters using your brand in their domain name, or using a misspelled version of your domain name in order to divert traffic away from you, and towards them. Be equipped enough so that future problems with cyber squatters will be prevented.
