Question 1

What should I keep in mind when picking a name for my business?

Accepted Answer

These let you look up the name you plan to use (sometimes for a fee) and check if it’s already being used, or has been used in the past. It’s a good idea to do a domain search to make sure that the accompanying domain is also available. You can do this via any domain company.

This can be a complex area, so it makes sense to get help with business registration so you get the type of business registration that’s right for you.
