.org .biz .us & .info?


If you have a choice only between:
.ORG .BIZ .US & .INFO for a sort of business domain, what would be the order in a sense of value?

I always thought that .ORG is "higher" than these 3 other ext.

Is .BIZ the "lowest" one? or .INFO?

I see here so many different prices for domains and I understand that I don't understand anymore.


Thank you.

Hello!

There is no 'one' better than the others. If you want to make an informative site for a roman villa in your area, you might like the domain www.romanvilla.info. Whereas if you are a charity providing food for the homeless, what better than a .ORG? And a business operating solely in the United States? .US is for you.

You see there are no clear cuts, although end user prices would probably show that .ORG is indeed strongest. I, out of them all, would be looking to purchase .US addresses. They are the future, of course, IMO...

In my opinion, .org would be best suited for non profit organization, .info for any informative sites etc.,

For business, I would choose .info if the site is informational in any way. If there's no intention of doing business outside the US, I'd choose .us. If non-profit or you want to make it seem that way, then go .org. .biz is my least favorite, but for business it would truly be a good choice if you can't get the .com and don't mind someone else competing against you with it.

I would definitely list .org last if it is used for commerical purposes. I think I would go with .US if the business resides in the US.
