Nykaa buys Superstore.co.in and Superstore.in before IPO

 Domain Sale (.IN /.CO.IN) India - In July, Nykaa Fashion based in Mumbai India, acquired Superstore.co.in and Superstore.in domain names for their future projects. (see Namebio.com) Interestingly Nykaa is also in Pre IPO stage and is filing papers.


Startups, New Business and Established Businesses in India as a strategy are looking to acquire .in and .co.in domain names for their specific projects, divisions, product or service categories and this makes all the sense , if you compare to what global companies have done in terms of acquiring generic/exact match domain names in .com . When you are looking to target a large growing economy/market such as India, it makes strategic business sense to go with the domain extensions that the country market has already accepted for over almost 19 years.

Businesses may already own their brand names (.in and .co.in) but they operate in various product/service categories that require focussed domain names, that are non-brandable or popular and highly searched keywords in their category, for their online presence .

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
