IF you think people are gonna go to your website by typing in your URL with an added .my or .cn, then yes, you should register those extra ones. Who knows, you may miss some business if people tried going to the .my address and find nothing there, and they give up trying to find your company's website. But if its just a personal website, it's not that important to register all the different permutations of your website...
Another thing is: some people may type in a "www" in front of your address, some people will not. Example: try go to http://www.tm.net.my and http://tm.net.my. One goes to tmnet website, one just goes nowhere
Chucky is correct, this is to avoid confusion. Thats why some companies they have .com, .net, even .org, not forgetting .com.myAnother thing is: some people may type in a "www" in front of your address, some people will not. Example: try go to http://www.tm.net.my and http://tm.net.my. One goes to tmnet website, one just goes nowhere
This is to avoid consumers/visitors to be redirected to other irrelevant sites.
Porn/Spam/Stupid websites keep on buying domain names to hope that people will mistaken the domain name and ended up landing on their spam sites.
Maybe this will give you a clearer picture. If your company is big[I assume it is] and have customers from china, why not register for .com.cn?
Unless like wat others said it is personal site then why bother?
Cheers.
