The choice of name used in a Domain Name - such as synergy-uk.com - depends on many factors. In the case of a business or organisation the name chosen will often be the same as an existing brand name, the company's trading name, or a trademark; in some cases the choice of name represents a generic type of service that the company offers.

Each domain name must be unique, and .uk domain names are allocated by Nominet UK on a first-come, first-served basis. However, because domain names can include letters, numbers and hyphens, there are many different ways of distinguishing between similarly named companies, thereby creating unique domain names.

For instance, a company called Widget and Splodge could have the following domain name options:

widgetandsplodge.co.uk
widgetsplodge.co.uk
widget-splodge.co.uk

It is also worth considering that development of a business on the Internet can involve building a brand reputation around an entirely new name - as in the case of egg.co.uk .

Domain registration and parking can be performed for £20.
