Are you put off using a website if it has a .co.uk domain rather than a .com ?
The website I am thinking of starting would possibly have a .co.uk domain rather than a .com one.
The content will be specific to a small area of the UK so would it matter if it was a .co.uk?
Are there any examples of successful .co.uk sites that have no .com equivalent?

No, it wouldn't put me off, or indeed many people at all. .co.uk's are for UK specific websites, and a many sites have no com equivalent.

Indeed if your server is not situated in the UK (US hosting is much cheaper, with better specs and services!), then having a .co.uk is the only way to get your site into the google uk results.

A lot of the bigger websites target the whole world, so they have .com addresses. A lot of smaller sites have .co.uks though and do very well.

A lot of people in this country ignore .coms, especially when looking to buy over the net. I do this myself, as by only targetting .co.uk's you can be sure that the item is available to buy from a merchant in this country, and that the price is in pounds rather than dollars.

I always get the .co.uk first, and then think about getting the com rather than the other way round.

No... I go more for .co.uk sites especially if I am looking for a site relevant to the UK.

If your content is specific to a certain area of the UK, I would feel more confident about a site with a uk domain name as it would indicate that the webmasters are in fact (probably!) from the UK and know what they're talking about.

That said.... you can "reserve" a .com account if you want to and you can get your hits redirected... still cheaper than a full .com account but stops the "confused" people.

As for examples.... there are plenty out there, but none that come to the top of my head... I have at times accidentally put .com and come up with a site completely different to the one I was after though... I'm at work so don't have my bookmarks to hand (sorry)

Not at all. If your business is situated in the UK and your customer base is largely in the UK then I think it is an advantage to have a .co.uk address. It tells your customers that you are a UK company straight away. You may also wish to consider a .eu address - they are more freely available (to suit the name of your business) and cheaper too! Go to www.euro-reg.com and do a search on your required name to see what is available.

yeah more often than not in the UK its a .co.uk address u need, most if the time if its .com its the american version of the site

one example is Faith shoes www.faith.co.uk ... i website i love and shop from all the time (no .com equivalent as faith.com is some spiritual site)

When searching for stuff, I tend to always look for uk based sites or .co.uk domains.
That way you know there's no messing about with shipping, converting, etc.

Hi, No not at all it's all the same. Cheers Paul.

Quite the opposite, a .co.uk domain immediately identifies the website as being relevant to me here in the UK.

No, since you are targeting the UK it's better for it to be a .co.uk because it indicates that you're based in the UK not elsewhere.
