You are frustrated. You've gone through a lot of trouble to brand your small business's name in the real world. However, in putting together an online site to sell your products or leverage your services, you have discovered that someone else has taken your company's "rightful" URL. While you may be able to take the cybersquatter to court if you have a legitimate grievance, chances are that you are simply out of luck. Particularly if your business is synonymous with your last name, you may have to look elsewhere to develop your e-commerce address.

The non-dot-com choices don't seem particularly appealing, however. Sure, you can establish a .net or .org presence. Yet there is a good chance that consumers searching for your site will end up not at your .net or .org address but rather at your competitor's .com domain. So what's a savvy entrepreneur to do?

We at Corp.com may have a solution for you--a dozen solutions, even. Check out availability of your lastname.corp.com right now. If you see that the domain is free, register now, and you can launch your business in style. Unlike other second level domains, which seem contrived or unimportant, the Corp.com moniker connotes authority, power, and sleek style.

Corp.com is distinct. It's also alliterative, which may not seem like a huge pro until you study the science of mnemonics and understand that verbal puns and associations can really impact how memorable a domain is. Don't let your small business down--grab your Corp.com domain as soon as possible.
