Registering .com.au

[Ext User(jasonb)]

Hi

I already own a .com.au for my ABN

want to now register a second .com.au

The new domain name does not relate to my exisiting ABN... so I thought
I would register a new trading name... but as a sole trader I can only
have one ABN

So... is there an alternative way to register a .com.au other than by
ABN? Could I register a trademark associated with my ABN ?

I don't have heaps of money so I'm looking for a cheap and easy way :)

thanks for any tips!
Jason

Your registered business name and your trading name don't have to be the
same thing.
And the .com.au domains don't even have to be related to the name, just the
business, eg if your business name is "Jason's Business" and you sell
carrots, your could register carrot.com.au.

Register another business name in your state or territory and then use
that to get a *.com.au domain.
