Recommendations for Australian Businesses
If you are an Australian company targetting Australian consumers then it is important that your website is built on the .au TLD (top level domain) as this will assist with local search rankings.
It is recommended that you register the .com.au, .com, .net.au and .net for domain brand protection and have them redirected to the domain where your website is hosted. This will prevent your competitors from purchasing these domain names and using your reputation to garner business. It will also assist in making sure customers find your website through redirection if they type the wrong TLD into a website search.
