Sainsbury's online home is www.sainsburys.co.uk.
If you type www.sainsburys.com into the box at the top of your web browser, you are redirected to www.sainsburys.co.uk. This reflects that Sainsbury's is solidly based in the UK. But, you might ask: "don't people expect to find a .com site?" In fact around four times as many Google searchers type in "www.sainsburys.co.uk", or shortenings like "sainsburys co" or "sainsburys uk". People have become more savvy about performing local searches.
The title and description that appear on the www.sainsburys.co.uk Google link are very effective: "The home of Sainsbury's online - Try something new today. Buy groceries online, get great deals on food, wine and financial products, buy flowers and gifts, find your nearest store, share food ideas and recipes, ...".This immediately tell you that you are at the Sainsburys home page, all the while avoiding "geek speak", and using the word "home" in a friendly manner. You are told there might be something new here, something worth trying. Sainbury's is not just about the weekly trudge to the store. You can avoid the trudge! You can buy online! Note also the flagging of new dynamic goods, like financial products and flowers - something for every taste.
