The internet is an exceptionally good way of reaching an audience. With a population of over 1.9 billion users, 51.4 Million of which are in the United Kingdom, there is the potential to reach a huge audience.
With any business venture one of the crucial points is as always cost. There are three main areas this breaks into:
Domain Your domain is always important, it is the address line people have to type in to get to your website. Ideally your web address should be easy to spell, memorable and fit the brand name and image. To own a domain name you have to register it, this is done via a domain registrar such as: Once you register a domain you have priority of that domain, meaning that when your domain registration period is up you will always have first refusal to renew your domain. As you can see to register a domain doesn't cost much, and if no one else has registered it then this process is extremeley simple. If someone else has already registered the domain you wanted then unless they refuse to renew you may have to offer them money to transfer the domain to you, domains have in the past done for many thousands.
