When your business name is already taken, what you do

Hi..everyone


If you have a business and now you want to start your online presence best of course would be having a domain name same as your business. Chances are very slim that you would get it, most of the domains with any sane meaning are taken.

We can always take a variation, but I think that would give the business domain name owner a huge advantage of stealing away lot of your prospective visitors once your online venture is popular.

Question is what should we do if we find out the domain matching the business is already taken


thanks

 

Are all the extensions taken? i.e. country specific ones?

 

As an alternative you could try approaching the current owner and ask if they would sell the domain to you, or use a different extension, maybe even try a different variation/short form of your company name.
