Westhamonline.net & domain names
|
So the domain name of this site ends in .net
Now I'm guessing because .com or .co.uk is either taken or more expensive?
Does having .net or .uk instead of co.uk or .com make much difference?

Makes no difference, cost is slightly more but in the grand scheme of things not that much.

Cheers. And if you buy it for say 2 years, then when the renewal is up, do you get first option? Or would it become open to bids?

Maybe ask the company you're buying it from?
They might be more up to date with their terms of business than any cunt on here.

They will send numerous e-mails reminding u to renew.
You can also auto-renew.

Didn't it used to be co.uk but they didn't renew the domain name and then someone nicked it ?

Paulie, that definitely sounds familiar. I'm pretty sure it used to be .com. This is going back a good few years though...

Yup- it used to be .com.
No idea what the reason for the change was though.

I joined when we were a .com, fuck me 1998 time?!
Ask Alex, he can be a got but we all owe him a drink for setting it up.
I miss the old WHO days though, around 2001/02 was fucking brilliant
