i like .fr at the moment becuase there is so many not reg'ed and you can run a free site of it (.free)

mallikrao79 · 08-01-2005, 09:55 AM

.IN and .co.in are going to be hot, as India is going thru Internet revolution.

worldstar · 08-01-2005, 06:20 PM

.cn, .in, .fr are good!

Sabre · 08-01-2005, 06:55 PM

.cn
.in
.co.in

Are the best, simply because they have the best long term potential out of all of the extensions listed above....

mappaiyo · 08-01-2005, 07:03 PM

.fr, .in, .es, .sc good for short

coolpix · 08-02-2005, 05:24 AM

.cn
.com.cn
.in
.co.in
.fr

are good.

i'd always go with second levels...

tipsfromthetop · 08-03-2005, 02:43 AM

hmm i thought the .fr was limited only to french residants.

Quote:

As a company, brand owners or French associations, you have the possibility to register a domain name with an .fr extension. This extension, specific to the France, allows you to reinforce your position, especially on the French market.

Quote:

Only companies, trademarks and French associations can register an .fr domain name.

unless this has changed.

domainprince · 08-03-2005, 10:42 PM

So that means a french individual cant register .fr?

mappaiyo · 08-04-2005, 02:05 AM

you're right. some country restricted their registration only for people origin from there.
