    I am new to DP but I see that there are A LOT of indians here, lots of people have indian name or username. Does DP do some special promotion in India?

    I don't think so. It's just i think IT sector is very famous in India and also i think because of the currency conversion lol

    I USD= 46 INR(approx) :D

    There is nothing like that. I am also Indian but never found that Dp is providing any kind of special favor. In simple words DP id totally unbiased.

    Actually, English language is not common in China as it is in India(I guess, correct me if i am wrong :))
    I am not saying Chinese men don't know english at all but I haven't seen many Chinese people speaking or understanding English language. They prefer their own language ~~Chinese :D
    Maybe They have their own DP(translated in Chinese) Heehee :)

    Actually in India, Language is different in every state. English is the connecting language. So, English is more popular in India than China.

    It's a BRIC economies mate!

    Brazil => Russia => India => China

    BRIC = The new big players on the world economic stage

    The reason why there are far more Indians on here than the other three is that the English language is far more widely spoken in their country than in the others.

    Not just on this forum but you can find Indians around the world at all places :D

    @zappy123 - Not because of higher exchange rate but Indians in IT sector since long-long time When exchange rate was around $1=38 INR ;)

    DON.

    Simply because the average indan salary is less then $1,000 a year, which with some work is very easily achievable on the internet.

    Why join the real world when you can start a few websites up and life off them.

    Bingo... :)

    I dont have any problem with anyone and i dont care Where they are from
    BUT the truth is that one person tells another (Hey go to DP and start submitting
    directories or provide a cheap service and you make money) and they swarm like hornets.

    Heck you dont even need a website just make a thread in services and your in business

    PS... NO im not indian but have friends here (usa) and abroad and havent yet to do bad business so...
