SLX UK | slx.uk Domain Name For Sale

A domain name can help your business make money, save money, and end up paying for itself, maybe many times over.

Benefits of a good domain name

Memorable

A good domain name will always be easy to remember. If it isn't, customers might struggle to find you again and may end up at a competitor's site instead.

Descriptive

Domain names that tell you everything you need to know about the website behind it are right up there. A good generic domain will instantly identify you with the products and services you provide.

Trustworthy

Trust and confidence are all important for online success and any domain name must convey both.

Marketing

The right domain name for your business will increase sales while reducing marketing spend - a real win-win for you. Studies have shown a domain name can help increase both click-through rate (CTR) and conversion rates because of the trust and credibility it offers your business. This can mean higher search engine rankings (SEO) and less money spent on Google Ads campaigns because Google rewards you for a higher CTR. A memorable domain name also means less money spent on building name recognition for your business in the marketplace.

Business Asset

A domain name is a business asset that can boost your business' value because everyone knows that online is where success now lies. If you choose to sell your business, including a great domain name in the sale will definitely increase the selling price

Radio Test

Would your domain name pass the radio test? If a customer heard it mentioned on the radio, would it be easily and correctly recalled later that day? And don't ignore the radio test on the grounds that you never intend to advertise on radio. For radio test read word of mouth.

Domain Extension

Stick to what your average man in the street understands. For most people in the UK that means .uk, .co.uk and .com. When buying products or services online, Nominet research shows that 81% of British internet users prefer to use a .co.uk website over a .com.

Choose your domain name and payment period

First, let us know the domain name you wish to purchase and what payment period works best for you.

The domain name is held in escrow

We will then reserve the name for you and arrange for the domain name to be held in escrow. This protects your payments and guarantees you exclusive use of the name during the lease to buy period.

Use the domain name from first payment. Own it on your last payment.

The great thing about our lease to buy option is you can use the domain name from your first payment, and will own it outright on making the final payment. This means that by the end of the lease to buy period, the domain name may have even paid for itself!
