This is interesting. I run https://newbusinessmonitor.co.uk/ https://newbusinessmonitor.co.uk/ and I’m often asked if I can provide contact data for UK companies, but this is difficult because no contact data is published when a company registers. I wonder how you’ll be getting this data for smaller companies.
- elliottinvent 5y agoThe long game is for companies to store NUM data when they register a domain, potentially through their DNS provider or web designer. Maybe even storing machine readable data instead of a website, since many small business websites are cookie-cutter anyway – contact info, directions, menu etc. Public data is available for most domain registries, e.g Nominet [0] and others [1] so we crawl new domains to discover contact data. It could be good to chat (email elliott[dot]brown@num.uk), we're in the process of mashing up Companies House data with our contact data in an effort to provide company numbers in NUM records too. 0. https://registrars.nominet.uk/uk-namespace/the-uk-zone-files/ https://registrars.nominet.uk/uk-namespace/the-uk-zone-files... 1. https://czds.icann.org/ https://czds.icann.org/
