.IN and .CO.IN doing quite well among Startups in 2021

 https://jamesnames.com/2021/06/data-driven-what-domains-did-startups-use-in-q1-of-2021/

The first quarter of 2021, running from January 1 to March 31, saw 1,154 new companies, solo ventures, or projects added to the Crunchbase database. This isn’t a particularly interesting stat on its own — every quarter, thousands of companies spring into life. What might be interesting, though, is the domain names that those companies founded in Q1 of 2021 are using.

Fortunately, Crunchbase shares this data, so I’ve compiled a list of domains from the dataset that we can take a look at. Of the 1,154 companies, 106 either didn’t have a domain name listed, or the domain was erroneous, so couldn’t be counted. That leaves us with 1,048 domains to analyze.

 TLDs

Out of those 1,048 domains, 112 different domain extensions were used. This does not count ccTLD variations such as .CO.UK and .UK or .CO.IN and .IN, for example, these are merged into one TLD for the purpose of this article.

Of those 112 domain extensions, I spotted 54 of the “new” breed of gTLDs, which includes the likes of .APP, .XYZ, and .TECH. The rest of the extensions consist of ccTLDs such as .IO, .CO, and .AI, as well as the traditional extensions including .COM, .NET, and .ORG.

India Domain Strategy - .IN and .CO.IN

  India Focus: Why do Google and Amazon have websites that use .co.in and .in domain names? Well they want to offer dedicated and focused services and products for India. So when you visit Google.co.in, you know everything that you will find is specially for India, not US not UK, same goes for Amazon.in. When you visit Amazon.com , all the products are catered to the US market. These large companies understand India is going to be a huge market and its better to offer their products on India specific websites using India specific TLD’s (or domains). .IN and CO.IN are being used by large and small companies and have millions of daily website visitors from India, so using those domain extensions for your India website, just makes business sense. We have a tendency to be over creative, in this case its best to see the solution that is right in front, keep it simple and go with the obvious. Competition: Online competition can come from anywhere, everyday new businesses are created an

Register / Evaluate - Domain Names

  If you are starting from scratch and want to understand how to go about, step by step and get into domain investments or acquire domains for your business, here are some of my suggestions: Where to register : You can check out many accredited .IN registrars, see a list on  http://www.Registry.in  . Godaddy, Dynadot are some of the preferred US based registrars. There are no residency requirements for registering .IN or .CO.IN domains. Prices are typically under $8 per year of registration How to pick domain names: I prefer domain names that have commercial value in India, domains that pertain to products and services and are of high value. Domains that are not a TM violation (check to make sure there are no obvious trademarks), generic keywords are a great option in this case. To find popular search keywords or valuable domains use a combination of these tools 1) Google search/Google trends - Use both of these tools to see how popular your Keyword or Acronym are. Use Google.co.in spe
