We make it part of our process to have our clients register their domains and hosting on their own with their contact info and purchasing info. I makes life a lot easier having this taken care before starting any new projects! Great points, great article! I can’t tell you how many times we have ran into this with our clients!

The top level domain is very important for search engine visibility. I used to advise my clients to always register a .com domain because this is typically what people associate with the web - however when Google ranks websites it also looks at the top level domain (i.e. .com, .net, .co.uk, .fr, .etc...) as a factor and also the IP address of the web host to try and determine where a domain is located. So if your business is location specific you should choose a country-level domain. If you already have a .com or .net domain but your main business is in another country don't despair - Google has an area called Webmaster tools where you can tell Google the primary location of your website.
