    Hi Friends,

    I am going to run a business(related to real estate) in India. So my main target is India only. I need to rank well for Search engines. So what domain should i choose, whether .in or .com?

    thanks,

    I would say try to find your choice name in .com first, then only go for .in

    I would recommend to use .com over .in as .com looks more good and easy to remember than .in :)

    I believe the .com domain is the best .
    Anyway, you can buy the both of them ,to protect your business in the future.

    go for .in or co.in
    uk people always prefer co.uk, are they having any trouble?
    people are intelligent enough to remember .in, if you market it properly

    in is good for ranking in india, If you want to invest the domain and develop it for the world, you had better use com

    If your business is country specific go with .in. However, I would also buy the .com just in case your business grows in the future and you want to appeal a more international audience

    that in is the best because of its geo targeted aspect that is why .in is better than .com

    Most definitely .com
    No doubt about it. It's the best domain extension.
    The only problem is, most of them are taken :)

    You would probably know the Indian market more than someone outside of India. Do people in India care if it has a TLD of .IN?

    In most English speaking countries .COM is more favored. Go with what is preferred for the visitors in the respective country.
