Virtual Office 31st January 2014 12:57 PM
It's fairly popular here. I think common sense prevails when wondering what people prefer. As long as you show you are always contactable, and traceable, that's what really matters. VO's allow people to hide/disappear though not too far, as we have ways and means of finding people who are up to no good - everyone leaves a forensic trail after them

No virtual office providers should be opening your mail without your permission, and this is normally only when you have requested the mail scanning service anyway. It's more about protecting the data you supply to them when you register for the service (providing your ID, etc).

I own First Class Virtual Office, and i'm a moderator here on the forums.

We are based at Doncaster Airport, but we don't have premises in London. A lot of people contact us to ask if we have London premises and I guess they ask in the hope that we will still charge

I should also tell you I had a non-delivery from you as well.

That bottle of Malibu never arrived.

I was sober all Christmas!

Last year a company 2 doors down from me took the parcel in and gave it me the next day, as i'm in and out the office and wasn't in much that week before xmas, but nobody has taken anything in for me so far as I can tell, so if you want to chase up and check who signed for it, see where it went.

You mean they all paid up front for farm machinery? Bizarre!

Sorry to hear you got off to a bad start and I hope things improve.

TBH though, I don't have much sympathy for these business folk who part with large sums of money without doing any due diligence.

I'd have thought it was just easier to Google it

I also don't see why a page advertising properties would confuse you.
Should I have one or more sites? 18th December 2013 4:37 PM
The golden rule is that each website should have its own unique content.

Well you wouldn't duplicate the same content across 3 sites for starters.

If you are not global, you are not going to be well known; global as in well-known in your industry around the world. Not just that you will sell to anyone in those 3 countries. I can sell my services around the world but it doesn't make me a global company.

Haven't you asked your website company this question yet?

PS There is a reason .coms, .au's, .co.uk's, etc, etc, exist. That's the reason you choose them.
Should I have one or more sites? 15th December 2013 2:03 PM
I would suggest co.uk for UK, .com for USA and .au for Australia.

PS Don't forget, though 3 times the work/expense, you have 3 separate sites that you could sell off, so each has it's own value.

I presume you are not trying to be a global company because that needs big bucks.
Finally, a useful Google algo update! 20th November 2013 5:29 PM
Not really to do with this specific subject, but i'm reading a crime book at the moment and it mentions how terrorists and criminals use shared email accounts and then use the draft email to message each other. Simple but clever and evades normal detection as they are not being sent over the internet.
