Advice regarding additional web address from 123-reg
Posted: Fri 15 Sep 2017 12:45 pm
My website address - www.cheadlehulmeweather.co.uk - has been registered with 123-reg since April 2009.
I have received an email from them advising the address www.cheadlehulmeweather.uk is reserved for me and will be free for use for two years.
They said business rivals may wish to use this and therefore compete with my business.
Well I'm not a business of course and my gut feeling is not to take up the offer because it would increase my expenditure in a couple of years and for no tangible benefit as far as I can see.
I don't claim to be an expert in these things so would appreciate the advice from others. It seems like an attempt to get me to part with more money.
