If you really want to be into all this you need to hook up with a good registrar first and they dont exist in India unfortunately.

If you dont have paypal or credit card get help from one of your friends who do and pay them cash.

Use godaddy.com and you wont have any problems after that.

Indian domain registration companies are a strict no-no for anyone who plans to get from them. As the service is non-existent in Indian companies especially if you buy domain from them and host it elsewhere. Except for .in (as it is not available elsewhere) domains, I never suggest you to go for indian domain registration service.

thank u boss

i have one more question sorry i am newbie here .

if i register some .in domains now

and can i transfer to godaddy.com (or any other ) after 60days old ?

because for hosting surely i wont do with indian companies hi5rate with low5 bandwidths

godaddy doesnt deal with .in domains.

For .in domains I normally use two registrars and they are indomains.net and namecheap.com and I find both of them equally good and both of them accept paypal.

I suggest you take hosting as close to your target audience as possible. If you are targetting India then Indian data center should be cinsidered but as they are too costly I would suggest eithe Singapore or Hongkong and after that UK. If you host your site in USA ping is always going to be more then 250ms but UK and singapore is much less hence enhance user experience by loading your site much faster...

Hosting closer to targeted audience also has a massive effect on SEO especially google

Do give me a shout if I can be of any help

Hi

If you want to register quickly (online payment) then go to godaddy.com. But you will not get .IN domain option there. Also they force you to buy additional services, if you need good rates.

In India, if you need good prices (and u r not buying hosting) then it is likely then you will get slow support. I was surprized to read ur feedback on trafficpullz.com - as we are managing more than 40 domains with them last 2 yrs and they always response. In domain some level of rights required - but as long company is honest and not taking u on ride u r safe.

some companies like space2let.com will give u domain at lower rate but will be nightmare for renewal and transfering domains

u r right trafficpullz.com has good support system

but that time it seems some level of authorization problem

actually i am taking only domains so may be its a cause for bad support

DataHost

these are my two cents

! Don't fall for .in domains that are advertised as 100 INR per year or below 200 INT per year. the price is for the first year of registration only. You'll be charged more than 700 for the rest of the years.
!!Namecheap is preferred to godaddy because of the advanced private NS registrations provided by Namecheap and also the site is more professional with no Adverts (compared to godaddy)

You can own domain names and not host rightaway. If you're looking for affordable hosting plans, just PM me. I can hook you up with a 500 MB package for around 450 Per year ($9.99 per year)

good luck.

You can try out indialinks.com. They accept bank transfers and i they are also ffering one .in domain name for 120 inr which is the cheapest what i could find over internet,
