Forgive me if this is a bit abstract...

Say you want to register a internet domain name, and both .com and .co.uk
are available, is there a reason to go for one over the other?

My instinct is that, for a UK firm looking for local business, .com
suggests something 'whizzy' and new, whereas .co.uk suggests something
more established and permanent.

What about search engine ranking? Is it likely to make a difference?
