Question .INFO and .BIZ

Hi,

Some people equals .info to .org (after .com and .net) but I am thinking that .info's or .biz's which are not a single word cant be sold for more than 100$ (if you are lucky) no matter how good the expression before the dot is.

Is that right? What are your thoughts on this?

Dear Pertosda,

I think all depends on the word. ( on the complete domain name )

I wouldn't say that .info is as good as .org, but it seems to be better than .biz

Thanks vimkar for that info about info's...

Most of them are single words as I said, although there are some two-word names. The thing is I just got VirusCleaner.info appraised for 20$-40$ and got a bit dissappointed.

I agree, .indo is somewhere between .org and .biz. We will know where after all the domains registered during the free .info promotion expire.

.info is a strong universal extension -- not quite in the league of the top 3 at this point yet, but it has been doing quite well. Com will likely remain at #1 well above the others, but info could take its place along net/org with a bit of time.

After .com, I don't think you can really order a domain in general, but tiers are probably better. Obviously .com is tier 1. Tier 2 (in my opinion) would contain .net, .info, .org with particular words being better in one than another depending on use. Tier 3 is probably .biz, with tier 4 being .ws, .tv, .cc, etc. As a US citizen, I'd put .us in the tier 2, but others may see it as a tier 3 or 4 since it limits use geographically.

It's like saying a cat is better than a dog.

It really depends on the application.
