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.

Of course it should NameRegistration, it just isn't with most search engines since they were cheap back in the day.

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.
