Why people suggests me to take .com domain

[rockone]

I have seen people usually suggesting me to take .com domain whenever I am making a new site. Is there any major difference between .com and .in or simply people say it out of fascination. I am only concerned about the performance of the site so please suggest me whom to believe - people or myself. Thanks all in advance.

you can try both, if you're so unsure about which to choose.

.com, .net and .org domains seem to have an advantage when trying to rank in search engines, but with the right amount of work anything will work. And they look more professional.

COM domain name is used by default. If someone says: "go to google" you will type google.com
