Hello there,

I am from India. I would like to buy a domain name which I find really good, .com and .in domains are not available and I am planning to buy .us domain name instead. Will it be helpful? For the domain name and its trend, India will be the location where I will be getting most of the traffic to that website. With that reason, Will it be good if i go with .us domain name?

Also can I register .US domain name from India itself? or do I need to submit any documents for it?

Please do suggest me your opinions or suggestions

Peace out!

Afaik you install a .us domain if you plan to get traffic from US

Also if the domains are taken might have to go with something else

Try .net/.org/.info as alternative for .com

Why not .com domain?, the renew fee of .us domain is even higher than .com domain. I've used tons of .us domains but I would recommend you go for .com. And yes, I can register .us domain just fine.

My first priority is .in domain if my target audience is from India.
If the domain isn't available then I'll go for .co.in.
