Hi guys
question.......

Do you think the search engines give preference to the coms. Is it less likely to be ranked if you have say a co.uk ?

Thanks

I don't think that the .co.uk hinders you at all in Google. Can't speak for the other search engines.

This comes simply from my practical experience in using Google to do research. I'm in California (well defined DSL IP address) and results from the UK are often in the top five or ten.

All my .co.uk and .org.uk domains are fine on Google, Yahoo and other search engines (even the USA ones).
