Google's Blogspot.IN domain expires and gets registered by another company
Google’s blog platform is undergoing some issues in India this week. Somehow, Google unfortunately let the “blogspot.in” domain expire , breaking millions of sites and potentially putting them at further risk.



Spotted by The Next Web and BleepingComputer, Google apparently let the blogspot.in domain expire in early June. it’s now owned by domainming.com and is available for purchase by anyone with $5,999 to spare.

Google hasn’t let the blogspot.com domain lapse, which is where all these blogs are still visible. However, the blogspot.in sites won’t automatically redirect there. Google previously set up the .in and other domain variations for different regions where Blogger sites were created. Having localized domain names allowed faster take-down requests for content hosted on the platform.

As it stands right now, the lapse in domain ownership has caused over 4 million Blogger-hosted websites to become broken in Google search and other areas where they were linked. BleepingComputer requested information from Google on this in early June, but never received a response for the company.

I offered him $7999 for it in a private-offer on a marketplace, but he didn't sell. Its a really good domain with huge number of quality backlinks.

No backlinks in the world can make up for .in
