What’s in a name?
by johnabell on Oct.25, 2009, under websites
We had one of our new clients (Leeds SU) use the opportunity of relaunching their website over the summer to change their web address. They were luuonline.com and they changed it to leedsuniversityunion.org.uk
The subject of what tld (web address ending) SU’s choose to use is an interesting one*. From the list below of the 100 largest SU’s you can see there is no obvious choice:
Although when I worked for Warwick I wrote the proposal to change the name to warwicksu.com from sunion.warwick.ac.uk; I think I lean towards .org now. It makes sense with the changes in governance and the shorter the better so I prefer it to .org.uk
What we really need is an SU with some cojones to buy the former USSR tld of .su - you can get one for just 600 rubles a year. That’s just £12 comrades.
*Well it’s interesting to me - I once sold the domain name www.obiwankenobi.mobi to a guy called Toby.
