I discovered yesterday that someone else has registered the .com and .org.uk domain names for my new company name
I had been waiting for the documentation to register the .ie name, and hadn't realised there were people out there who spot new company registrations (ours was a couple of weeks ago), and register domain names, presumably with a view to selling them to you at profit.
It will be an online trading business, so obviously the website and domain names are important -- but there is a fallback option, with a trading name.
As you can see, I'm new to this business (!) and any advice would be really appreciated, as we've just commissioned someone to start work on the website, and on logo, so we need to decide on names ASAP.
As always, your help appreciated, and thanks.
