Hi Redstar and welcome to INForum!

The ones I like the best are laterooms.in and bargainhotels.in - I think that they're worth low to mid $XXX.

my favs:

laterooms.in (might have issue with laterooms.com?)
alcoholfree.in
poker365.in
cityrooms.in
travelexpert.in (not in orginal list, just got email confirmation of registration)


jeff, whats your opinion of .in's, i just did a few impulse buys in the hope of a quick buck, do you thing indian companies are using .in's or is .com still king?

I'm personally putting as much money as I can afford into Indian domains.

It's obviously a lot more of a speculative investment than .com's, but I think that it is very worthwhile.

Indian companies are using .in and .co.in domains more and more. With the large population in India plus the rapid rate at which internet penetration is occurring there, I think that the values of Indian domain names is set to increase substantially.

There are already many domain sales in the four figures, and a lot of these domains were originally registered only in 2005. That's a pretty large ROI. I don't know that more recent registrations will appreciate in value that quickly, but I do think that the rapid appreciation in value will continue.

One drawback is that Indian domains aren't as liquid as .com's, so I'd buy with the view of holding on for at least a couple of years.

I also get type in traffic to several of my Indian domains, which shows that people actually use and think about .in and .co.in in the real world - it's not just domain speculators pumping up the prices.

thanks for the insight jeff

just bagged another one, suprised no1 registred it

needcredit.in

Yes, I think that hand registering .in domains is still worthwhile!

He means coming up with an name that is unregistered and then registering it 'by hand' rather than buying from the aftermarket (from another person).
