But you can buy a domain with .in, .org, or .net extension.

Company Name/Field Name: If you want your company name to be a brand, buy your domain with your company name or the field name. If your company name is xyz, then buy the domain xyz.com or if your website is related to shoes, then you can buy something like shoesonline.com.

Extensions: A person who has minimum knowledge on digital marketing knows ‘.com’ extension is the best for your business but you can buy the domain with the country extensions if you want to brand your business in the particular country. For example, if you want to grow your business in India, buying domain with ‘.in’ extension helps you.

Hyphens: Hyphens are not really good for your domain name. It is okay to add a hyphen to inner pages for making the URL SEO-friendly but if you do it for your domain itself, it effects your ranking and really bad for your business.
