    Cant stab at the rank, you would need to hold a very extensive market survey to determine that. I would say .com would be in pole position ( I dislike .net, .biz, .org)

    I suppose on the first place is COM then all other TLD domain names. Then some ccTLDs like ME or WS.
    Then depends on your location. Because some CCTLDs require to be resident of the country ccTLD belongs to.

    Well, this list might help you a little.

    www . domaintools . com /internet-statistics/

    It always amazes me how many domain names go expired. I know in my experience I register something thinking I am going to do something with it and never do. :-P

    Stick with .Com, .Net, .Org, and .Com is the best extension.

    .Net is my favorite. Too many squatters on .com.

    I'm in UK so would say .com number 1 and .co.uk number 2.

    People in the UK would rather click on co.uk domain as they feel it's safer.

    Depends wich country your business is pointed :) if you want worldwide i suggest .com or .co , then .net have someproblem for direct business , but you can always monetize it some how. But for your Local business point at your country exstension :) .co.uk , .it, .de ,.in , .cc depends to your business :)

    I agree .ca, .co.uk, .au, etc if the business is local or same country, however in my experience, .com, .net, .org seem to rank the same.

    If you have a legitimate organization than .org is the way to go- I feel people "trust" orgs more.

    It's what is widely used nowadays. :)

    .com.net.org rank the same and that's true but if you're doin local business i think is better have the domain extension relate your business (wherever is your local) tht increase you conversion rate by 75% more then .com .net .org , for who donno what .org mean is shorter for organization .co is corporate ect ect ..(wikipedia will teach you that :rolleyes: simple google search :)
