.xxx domains & Indian universities

The International universities in US have already reserved their matching .xxx domain names to keep themselves safe from embarrassment of being used in an adult .xxx web site.

The Indians are yet to take step on safeguarding their colleges and universities names.

Here’s a list of few top universities * colleges in India with available .xxx domain (as on 10th Jan 2012)

  • amity.xxx - Amity university
  • annamalai.xxx - Annamalai university
  • bhu.xxx - Baneras Hindu University (BHU)
  • jnu.xxx - Jawarlal Nehru University (JNU)
  • jmi.xxx - Jamia Millia Islamia University
  • ignou.xxx – Indira Gandhi National Open University
  • lpu.xxx – Lovely Professional University
  • vit.xxx – Vellore Institute of Technology
  • srm.xxx – SRM University, Chennai
  • iisb.xxx – Indian Institute of Science, Bangalore
  • iim.xxx – Indian Institute of Management
  • nls.xxx -  National Law School of India, Bangalore

 

Looks like no university/college in India cares much on the Internet impression. Leave the govt one’s out as it hardly matters to them.

What about the private one’s. The brand they have build is strong yet a scandal on one of these sites would be dramatic for them.

Reputation is built and needs to be maintained else it starts declining leaving you as just one of those in line.

The Indian IT law prohibits any person residing in India to manage an adult site. If I was not in here, damm.. I would have registered these domains.

The value of these domains will rise after a couple of years as India is yet to see the adult industry boom.
