What possible benefits can you get with .com.ng?
#ProudlyNigerian.

For SEO purpose if you site 'product' is for Nigerians .com.ng is better as google.com.ng will serve your site more to people searching from Nigeria.

You need to know why you want to consider .com.ng
If you have a good reason to feature Nigeria in your domain and the name itself is not long already, you can choose .com.ng. The difference in cost is not much (just like N500) but you will likely have a better server behaviour with .com (as you won't be restricted to some specific registrars). If your domain name is slightly long and you really have to make it sound Nigerian, you can step up your game by going .ng straight. But mind you, the .ng option is expensive - about 600% of the cost of .com.ng

Oh, then I guess that answers the question.

Are you positioning yourself as a Nigerian or a global player? That should give you your answer.

Local Target - .com.ng
International Target - .com
By Target, I dont mean ''Guns'' and ''Shooting People''....

Aquariann:

In giving my suggestion, I'll say you go with "yourmedianameng.com".

While the "ng" would give an impression of it being of Nigerian origin, you'll still have the ".com" to show it's contents are for the global audience.

Thank you

.com is more common. use .com.

Re: .com Or .com.ng Which Should I Go For by babayega(m): 7:05pm On Mar 12, 2016

If you're targeting Nigerians, use .com.ng. If both are available, get the 2. Redirect one to the other.

Re: .com Or .com.ng Which Should I Go For by Mafeb: 7:10pm On Mar 12, 2016

.com is more expensive than a .com.ng extension. Understand that it all has got to do with the brand you want to promote. Most of my clients prefer a .com extension but I feel a .com.ng extension was created just to promote the Nigerian image. It doesn't matter which you pick eventually. All that'll couneventually will be your site's up and downtime.

Re: .com Or .com.ng Which Should I Go For by cmon(m): 9:36pm On Mar 12, 2016

Go for both.... If you eventually start with .com and you start getting popular, one idiot would just go and copy you by taking .com.ng. Reserve as many as you can, if possible, .ng

Its muddled up there! What exactly do you wanna do? Mobile app, blog and website or one of all 3? Also, do you want to hire someone or you want to do it by yourself? If you're looking to hire someone, well you could call me up on: 08132657200 or 09056004171. At the same time, should you need clarification or if you have questions or things that you understand, you can contact me on those numbers still. I'll be happy to help!
