    Is having domai other than .com a bad marketing?

    Hey guys.

    Not sure and im slightly confused how to go ahead. Im in the process of setting up a startup and Im looking for a domain which fits my company name. However there's a problem.

    Lucky enough I have the company name available to be registered as limited company. However I dont have the .com domain. Instead .uk. I live in the UK and the company is based in the uk. And therefore .uk might fit well. However im not entirely sure.

    Ofcourse plans to expand in the future is on the card and when the time comes I could find an opportunity to either find domain to the country im expanding to?

    But my question is having a top level domain other than .com a bad strategy? And does it mean when it comes search engines we wont be on top of the search results, because search engines predominantly search the .com?

    Like what amazon do - they have a domain for each amazon.com, amazon.co.uk, amazon.fr, amazon.it

    Thanks
