Analysis by Amenworld.com - the company that makes it simple for businesses to
get started on the 'net - found that January and February were the most popular
months to register a domain name.
Since 2005, Amenworld.com has observed
a consistent rise in sales of domain names every January as people make starting
their own business a New Year resolution. Last year saw an increase of over 36
per cent in .co.uk domains and a 22 per cent increase in .com domains.
In
February 07 there was a further increase of 37 per cent in .com domain names
from the previous month, showing that people are at their entrepreneurial best
as the New Year sets in. Keeping this trend in mind, Amenworld predicts that
we’ll see a similar boost in new domains in 2008.
The web address of a
company is a core part of its brand. Registering a domain name should be the
first thing any entrepreneur does after deciding to go into business. If they
don’t, they might have problems similar to Apple Inc. who were reported to have
paid a million dollars to buy the iphone.com domain at a later stage.
The
ease and simplicity of registering a domain name and further starting an online
business makes an achievable New Year’s resolution but it's quite common for
people to break their resolutions before the year is out. To make it easy,
Amenworld offers free technical support and cheap web hosting and e-commerce
packages to all their customers to make their New Year's Resolution a success.
They can even try their hand at running an online shop free for thirty
days.
Andrew Fassnidge, Marketing Manager of Amenworld said “Along with
giving up smoking or hitting the gym, registering a domain name is rapidly
becoming one of the most popular and fashionable New Year's Resolutions. It's
encouraging to find that people intend to begin online ventures as part of their
good intentions for the New Year, but it's important to know what will help them
succeed.”
He further added, “To kick-start the New Year for people
starting businesses, we make it simple by providing a full package that will
support the growth of an online venture. For instance, Amenworld.com helps
set-up not just the web address, but provides simple tools to build the website
and provides a professional email service and website hosting . Buying a domain
name is a great start, but to really look professional businesses need to step
it up a notch and get the whole web package."
Since 2005, over 17 per
cent more .com domains have been consistently bought in Q1, compared to Q4 in
the previous year. The quarterly rise in .co.uk domain names has not shown the
same consistency; The Q1 in January 06 showed an 18 per cent increase while Q1
in January 07 showed an 8.7 per cent increase from the previous
year.
