@Ankit : You are totally wrong my dear frnd.. just take an example of my hindi blog.. its getting 150-250 hits per day(i know this is bad for eng blogs but in hindi it is an above avg hits).. and 40% hits i’m getting from out side of india(max from Canada & USA and some what also from Jermany).. in india max hits are from Delhi, Mumbai & Bangalore.. only 10-15% hits i’m getting from small towns..

मैं नवंबर 2006 से हिंदी ब्लौगिंग में हूं और तभी से हिंदी पोर्टल और हिंदी चिट्ठाकारिता के नये आयामों पर अपनी नजर जमाये बैठा हूं.. मैं खुद को कोई विशेषज्ञ घोषित किये बिना ये कहना चाहता हूं कि अंतरजाल(इंटरनेट) पर हिंदी अभी अंग्रेजी के मुकाबले बहुत बच्ची है.. मगर इसमें दिन-दूनी और रात चौगुनी प्रगती हो रही है.. जैसे आज से 1 साल पहले लगभग 1000 हिंदी ब्लौग थे वो अभी बढकर लगभग 4500 हो चुकी है..

it is interesting that you still not believe that Hindi is a popular language amongst Indian internet users. Just follow the forums at the popular portals like rediff, sify and so on; you’ll clearly see that there is a huge number of users who comment in their own brand of hinglish.

I agree that this is not a very scientific way and can not give you statistics but it would be enough to change your opinion or at the very least to give you a feel.

There is definetly a market for hindi portals. I guess hindi portals will find good traffic coming from smaller towns.
Finding traction in metropolitans could be difficult.
