just so you know I got my .info to the front page of google for my keyword in the first week. So I guess that proves that google dont discount them.
I have always wondered, why are .info's cheaper then the rest? Like 1 third of teh more commercially used extensions.
I think no difference between .info, .com results. results is depending on computation and your work.
It is not the domain extension that matter, but it is the keywords use in the domain itself that will effect the ranking of a website in a search engine.
Info domains and .com domains there is no problem getting listed on Google for 99 cents you can not go wrong.
.com's, as you build your site name, it will be stronger than any other extension. use google and type any big business name, and the results will start with a .com.
.info is also blackhatters weapon, they usually buy tons of .info domain for spamming because .info is cheap
i have a .info adult blog with PR2 it is well indexed in google and making $$$ per month easily! so .info arent inferior to any other tlds all tlds are of same priority.
info is not bad, example : "prchecker.info" ,Go to Google and enter the following phrase, “check pagerank†or “check page rankâ€
factually, yes! google for ".info domains for development" and read some of the stories (i don't remember which link though, sry) but you'll have to work harder than you do for a .com domain and if your content is really unique you can earn some dough... if your .info domain has a name relevant to your content and provides something useful (like http://prchecker.info/), then you have chances of even making it to the front page
.info's are just tough to get started with on Google, once the site builds up some authority there is no problem.
a domain extension doesn't affect the SEO. Just get a lot of back links to it so that it would rank good.
