trading name help please.

Just make sure you either market yourself completely different to the other one OR if you really like his stuff and want to catch a ride on his web traffic use similar tactic and tags ( stay away from copying main fonts though)

he only does fashon photography, and i dont think he is very good IMO.

I have gone for www.champion-photography.co.uk purchased the domain last night, The best of both worlds IMO, uses my name to make marketing easier, outlines right from the word go what i do, easy to remember, and most importantly does not limit me to a specific type of photography.

All i need now is to build my portfolio. so anyone in, or know of any bands that play at half decent (i.e. want and need lighting rigs) venues that want some pics taken (the shoot for free, and they can they look at and buy any images that they want) or any play any sports they want photographing (same as the music) let me know, i dont plan to be doing it for free for long!

Oh and ideally someone in the south of the UK, not york!

back in the 90's I helped with a pinball repair company called pinball express. The website was pinball-express.com but we got fed up having to say 'pinball express, thats pinball hyphon express' to people, so we changed it.

i do plan to also purchase www.championphotography.co.uk incase some simple minded individual manages to miss out the - they will still be redirected to the correct site, i think however having the - in there makes the address more readable, therefore better for the advertising once again.

Well we had a web presence for 10 years, and our customers were not simple minded. That website got me an audience with the boss of Sega, several famous people and an appearance on breakfast TV. When your phone rings all day after some media exposure you'll be glad for taking out the hyphon. Good luck with the attitude.

please dont take that in the wong way tigersaw, i was not saying that your clients were simple minded! i was just stating that from experiance jo public are not the brightest people in teh world, in general terms!
