Thread: India's Internet Infrastructure

10 years behind China.

That's why Indian domains are still so cheap..

Even many 3 letters.in are available..

It's ridiculous for the huge nation with 1.1 billion people.

i know what you mean.....but India will hopefully see its neighbour and double up....but they're working on it, so lets hope...it only gets better from here, remember that.

are you aware of how much a .CN domain is worth?

.in & .co.in domains are only cheap if you sell them cheap! I have simply followed a policy of having a minimum (high for premium names) pricing scale for my names and I will not sell below that range. We make the market, buyers and sellers- if you sell cheap then the market will look cheap. I will not undersell, if others start to do that then prices will rise.

.cn - another animal altogether. Most of the big sales are in China and rarely make the "sold" boards, plenty of money there! With the advent of idn and with .mobi & .eu now jumping on the bandwagon and giving more exposure idn will soon be mainstream then you will see a massive increase in value.

If you are not on board the train has already left the station!

Thank you! I agree, this is exactly how markets are made - it's been discouraging to see so many people sell valuable names cheaply.

I admit to putting a few names out there over the past few years in order to gauge the market.

This is a 'Buy and Hold and Sell High' game but it takes patience and capital.

I think that as soon as the recession is over this will change. Even .com domains are really struggling at the moment.
