Our logic doesn't apply to search engines, even the almighty Google. Anyway, I think they value .us higher than .info, not quite sure about .cc/.ws, although i'd hazard a guess at .ws.

.info should be ranked before .us IMO. About .ws and .cc both are valueless.

If you take a random string of characters, generally speaking it would be com>net>org>info>biz>us.

Look at the 3 character wholesale pricing or at the average sales I've posted earlier. But the word should fit with the extension and make sense.
