domain Centre.co.in

I think this is their spelling of Center. I Did a Google.co.in India search and it returned 996,000 hits on this word, so I figured it was worth registering. If anyone here lives in India, please let me know if this is a good one.

Ha... I own center.co.in
We'll see who sells for more.

 

[kjwalton]

Deal.

That's how we spell 'center' here in Canada and in the UK, so you are probably right for India aswell.

Good luck... both of you

We usually spell it as "center" - in which case, I believe that Leo has brighter chances of gettin more money

Best Luck,
Pratik

Thanks, Pratiknaik. Since you live in India, where do you see this whole co.in ext going and are there many businesses and people trying to reg these?

 

[pratiknaik]

Well..if you ask my personal opinion - you best deal would be to develope the names and try to generate revenue via ppc. Everyone is on a buying spree and the sales we've seen so far is very less comparatively. I always feel that .co.in & .in has value in INR ( Indian Rupees ) and not USD. 1 USD = 43 INR. Average income of an Indian family is about 15k +- 5k INR. And there are about 3-5 people in a family. So that's like 400$ for 3-5 people ! This is not the case in countries like UK & Germany - hence one should refrain from comparing .co.in/.in with .co.uk & .de.

But the real advantage lies in India's English speaking population and large internet user base. So, your best deal would be PPC. And you can always sell the site/domain if you have some developement.

Thanks,

Hey pratiknaik

How do you usually spell this word in India

Fertilizer or Fertiliser? Would either be a good .in and .co.in to own in your country?

Cheers

I guess we should not talk here as it could be irritating for the thread started.

PM sent.

On a useful note : People in India speak combination of US + British English. Some words are also spoken in Hindi. It's basically a combination of'em all !

But people write in British English.
