Hi Guys i am a bit confused between choosing TLD(top level domain) or ccTLD(country code top level domain).

My Client's running a Travel Business in Fiji . I have choose three Keywords for his Website.
  1. Fiji Travel
  2. Fiji Vacation
  3. Fiji Islands
My target countries are USA (.com) New Zealand (.co.nz) & Australia (.com.au). Now i am confused that should i buy .com domain or .com.fj domain because all my three keywords have the Country name "Fiji" in it. Google will rank us on .com.fj if i buy .com.fj domain but does it also rank on google.com.au or google.co.nz because my all keywords have country name in Keyword. Please guide me with the reason that which domain should i go for and why?

    I'd go for ccTLD but if resources is an issue just go for a sub folder. Make sure you implement geotargeting too.

    I was at a digital marketing conference the other week. Check this out from David Lloyd - Digital Search marketer for Adobe.
