Find answers to common questions about .co.uk domains.
Anyone can register a .co.uk domain name, which makes tapping into the UK business market easier compared to some other ccTLDs.
To register a .co.uk domain name, you will need to provide valid contact details, your identity type and your company number (if applicable).
Since GDPR, contact information will not be published on the public WHOIS database, so WHOIS privacy applies by default, however you can opt-in if you are required to do so, for example, if you are a non-profit or government organisation.
You do need to make sure the contact information provided is up-to-date and valid as it will be verified against other sources by the domain registry.
Of course, you can! We recommend it. Hosting your domain with your domain registrar makes management much easier, you can configure professional email, add an SSL certificate, manage your DNS and more within our hosting control panels. We have a web hosting plan suitable for every requirement, discover how we can help you build your online presence today.
Choosing a domain name is one of the most important tasks whilst setting up a new website. Choosing the right domain extension is also a major factor. If you are a local business, targeting UK-based customers then we would highly recommend that you choose a domain ending in .uk - .com is seen as more of an ‘international’ extension, suited if you are targeting customers worldwide.
The maximum length of time you can register .co.uk domains for is 10 years at one time. Most businesses buy a .co.uk domain registration for 2-3 years at a time and then set up auto-renew so they do not lose the domain name.
There are different types of TLDs (domain extensions) - the most common are top-level domains traditionally are .com, .org or .net. A .co.uk domain extension is a ccTLD, a country code top-level domain, overseen globally by ICANN (the Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers) and managed in the UK by Nominet.
When a .co.uk domain reaches its expiration date, only the owner can renew it during a redemption period of about 90 days. After that it becomes available for anyone to re-register, so we recommend auto-renewal to keep your domain and protect your brand online.
If you already own the perfect domain, you can transfer to Unlimited Web Hosting to benefit upon renewal from our cheap .co.uk domain prices. What’s more; transferring is absolutely free of charge. You just need to place an order via our website and then update your TAG.
