Looking for Yahoo ecommerce hosting for UK?

admin — Thu, 20 Jan 2011 14:35:49 +0000

Question: I am seriously close to signing up for a full e-commerce solution provided by Yahoo. However, every link I’ve found and used directs me to a sign-up page for the US. One of the reasons I want a UK sign-up is the option to obtain a free domain name. However, I want a .co.uk name and not a .com (I already own 2 variations of the name I want ending in .com).

I’m wondering if there is a specific setup for UK based customers?

Answer: It does not matter where you signup for the Yahoo! Merchant Solutions account. You can signup for an account with a .COM domain and use a domain alias for your .CO.UK

You need to register your .CO.UK domain at a different registrar. Try 1and1 for domain registration. Then set the .CO.UK to point to your .COM domain using aliasing. Your domain registrar should be able to help you do that.
