Question Which extension do you prefer among .info, .biz and .pro ?

Which extension do you prefer among .info, .biz and .pro (without restriction) ?

I begin to prefer .pro than .biz (sounds bizarre) but I still prefer .info than .pro.

For me, I like .info >> .pro >> .biz

.pro is an unwanted extension really and is a dumb investment. .Biz has never picked up since inception.

Recently some .pro domain restrictions taken off and I think it will become more popular than .biz.

.pro does look better than .biz , IMO.

pro will never take off for domainers until the price is lowered to something even remotely reasonable.

.pro is obviously way behind .info and .biz but it is extremely brandable and may surprise a few people one day.

.info 1st, .biz, second, and .pro third.

if .pro was replaced with .us in this situation, it would be a bit more competitive

.info because it doesn't cost a fortune. (i think .biz is reasonable $15ish but even at that price i'd rather stick with .com and .net at half that price)

I made the mistake of regging a bunch of tv's, and now i'm faced with paying another $30 each or dropping them. Now I shy away from the overpriced alternative tld's.

It doesn't make any difference. That extension can't be associated with domain names.

for e.g.

- sex.pro, doctors.pro what do they mean ?

I know. I'm a contrarian . I wouldn't really want to run a business off an .info. I'd be more inclined to run it off a .biz. I'd leave .pro well alone, for the speculators. If however, you're talking about reselling and ROA, then probably .info might be your best bet, all other things being equal.

Direct Navigation using .biz is very less compared to .info

I think .info is better even if it's a business unit just my opinion really.

I prefer .info domain names, but I still believe that .pro will be more popular in the future.

In what way can't the extension "be associated with domain names"? Doctors.pro is a great domain name and would seem to be well-suited to a site for professionals in the medical field. Sex.pro, well - draw your own conclusions. Is english your native language?

I would like some .pros but I would rather take my chances with 100 .info's than 1 .pro at this stage.
