Corresponding .uk domain names
Almost 5 years ago Nominet released the ability to have `yourname.uk` and if you had a .co.uk you had first choice of the domain name for example, I have `fife.co.uk` and I also recently registered `fife.uk`.
When .UK was launched on 10 June 2014 the rights were reserved for many existing customers owning a .co.uk, .org.uk, .me.uk, .net.uk, .plc.uk or .ltd.uk to their equivalent .uk domain.
If you already own a domain ending in .UK (e.g. .co.uk) then for a limited period, you may have the rights to your equivalent shorter .uk domain.
If you wish to register a `.uk` domain then let me know.
Nowadays there are plenty of choices for a domain so I don`t think it is imperative you also request the .UK domain.Don`t miss out
We do not want you to miss out, so for a limited time, we are giving you your matching .uk domain(s) FREE for THE FIRST YEAR*

The .uk domain is the shorter UK focussed domain for businesses and individuals and delivers the same trust, reliability and credibility as .co.uk.
.uk: Confident. Entrepreneurial. Distinctive.Terms and Conditions
