.In Vs .CO.IN
Hi,
wanted to know your view
(dot).in vs .co.in
Some people don't consider .co.in a domain, they take it as a subdomain  |

Re: .In Vs .CO.IN
We've had this discussion a few times... Each time I think I'm a bit more negative on .co.in. I'm still registering many of them, but I'm concerned about the lack of sales compared to .in.

Re: .In Vs .CO.IN
Thanks for Links, I am also worried about this trend of treating third level domains like subdomains:|

Re: .In Vs .CO.IN
i think .co.in was the initial ccTLD for india,then it was replaced by .in later on , please correct me if i am wrong.So i think both .co.in and .in are ccTLDs for india ,rather then .co.in being a third level domain .

Re: .In Vs .CO.IN
.in is just showing healthier momentum and growth than .co.in, and thats why i'm only keeping my best .co.in names. THe international community seems to be embracing .in a chunk more than .co.in , and this has really affected .co.in's fate in the long run. Good keywords are still probably worth it, but you're better off stuck with an average .in than an average .co.in name.

Re: .In Vs .CO.IN
.IN will always be the more popular choice than .CO.IN..the only thing that bring it down is the cost..but thats no quite a lot if you look at the potential..

Re: .In Vs .CO.IN
If you look at offline advertising , on billboards, newspapers, most companies are using .in. The use of .com seems to have declined.

Re: .In Vs .CO.IN
I do recommend whoever holding the high premium 3 characters of LLL.in, it's mean you're holding golds in your hand. But the question is when or how to use or sell those golds.
As far as *.co.in, if this without *.in then it should be more popular but now I don't think so because *.IN will take over 99% in future.
