		<description>well, the cctlds reallly affect search in google. google is great in determing the domain extension, and it also takes care of the hosting location. The location of hosting affects the search engine placement in a location, as the domain does. For example the website http://www.bccitv.in hosted on indian servers will determine its rank, in the smae way as a dot .ca or dot .us website will be ranked in germany and usa, if they are using the servers of their respective countries</description>

		<description>well the ccltds are not that hot, it is dot com that carries its rewards, and it helps to have a dot com, because people first go for the dot com, and then they press anything further. http://www.ledbazar.com</description>

		<description>well google actually prefers dot com in ranking than the cctlds, and it is a must for everybody to have a dot com, even if you have a country level extension. http://searchbox.mobi</description>

		<description>Yep its true.  I'm not really sure why the SEs are not announcing it officially, but various domain registrars have been giving tips about ccTLDs and gTLDs when it comes to SEO.

I myself has been thinking for more than 3 years already if I will get a .ph ccTLD just so to get more PH hits (my target audience) than non-PH, but as Mae said, ccTLDs are really expensive.

I will however make sure I will get the important domains once .ASIA is available ;)  Since my and our real target is the Asian countries.  It's time Asians take over the Internet, enough of the Western world :p

Oh, .ASIA covers the Oceania region ^_^

It will be available very soon.  Watch out for .ASIA!!</description>

		<description>Using .com.ph domain extensions is really tempting... the only problem is the price of having one :(</description>
