Well, I've almost bought Web address for my company. The address will be something like this: http://www.myname.org.ua

Is this ddress bad? Should I anyway buy www.myname.com? My company is situated (physically) in Ukraine (.ua). Please tell me your comments.

Go with .org.ua if you're providing local services within the Ukraine or your site isn't going to be in English. If you want to sell worldwide, it's not worth having anything that people will find hard to remember or that may make them less likely to use a CC, so go with .com

Thanks. Well, I just want to ask one more question. Does this address (www.myname.org.ua) seem ugly? Maybe people will think that this is a free web-hosting and will be afraid to buy my goods?

To me it seems ugly, in fact I've never seen .ua in use before. However .au and .uk both are very successful for companies based in the domains' respective countries. I second what escotia said.
