    Domain Name Advice...

    You could also think about using a less commonly known TLD. There's a huge list available now, and the domain name you want might still be available with a suitable TLD. Check out the list of domains and see if there's one that's suitable for you.

    Bitcoin Mining - what the hell is it?

    It gave me a chuckle!

    Start-up Assets

    Thanks for the replies, they've been very helpful. I hadn't intended to use a personal account for a limited company, it's just that I already have an account open, with a small amount of funds in it that I'd like the business to use going forwards. I'd convert it to a business account when I...

    Start-up Assets

    Hi all, I've a question about starting a business with some assets/cash/etc already in place. Say I'd like to start a business by registering a limited company. But before I do, I do a number of things - I open a simple current account and add some cash to it (to be used by the business); I...

    Property investment

    Yeah that's the impression I got. I'd be looking for some BTL properties that can essentially pay for themselves over the next 20-30 years, in the hopes of ending up with some kind of retirement income when I finally get to that age, although a lot of the problems you've mentioned seem rather...

    Property investment

    Can I ask, is there anything specific that helped you decide to throw in the towel? I've been contemplating the idea of buy-to-let for months now, but despite some family experience in the business, I'm still unsure whether the whole idea is worth it. It seems as though new laws tend to make it...

    Facebook news feed changes

    It makes me chuckle seeing stories like this. While it's sad that a business can essentially go under because of changes outside of their control, what did they expect would happen? They've been using Facebook to build up a business, for free, and didn't think about how not to put all their eggs...

    Expenses Deducted from Corporation Tax in Future Years

    Awesome, thanks for the reply. Is there a limit on how far forward the loss can be carried? Thanks again.

    Expenses Deducted from Corporation Tax in Future Years

    Hi all, As I understand it (please correct me if I'm wrong) as a limited company there are certain business expenses that can be used as tax relief when calculating the corporation tax owed. So, for example, the company might buy a laptop costing £500 to be used for accounting, email, etc...

    Best business current account

    Just out of interest, do Santander still offer the free business account? I've been with Santander personally for a while now, and haven't had any issues with them so far. I might just be lucky, I guess.

    What do you think of the business name four...

    I was thinking something similar. Fisicx is right about the immaturity of the new top-level domains, and it might well be a bit confusing for people who haven't seen them before, but it won't be long before they're the norm and people become accustomed to them. The new TLDs are sorely needed and...

    Hacking into cloud services

    Security is certainly a selling point in their eyes, although when these companies tout how "secure" their products/services are, I think the point they're making is more about how the cloud services are more secure than a small company trying to lock down it's own infrastructure (with small...

    What do you think of the business name four...

    Although a tad unconventional at the moment, you might think about using the .property or .properties top-level domains as well. fourwalls.property is already taken, but fourwalls.properties is available...

    Hacking into cloud services

    "Safe", but not totally secure. Nothing is ever totally secure. At least, not forever....
