Does info domains ever show up in the SERP?

    I can't say I've ever noticed .info domains on a SERP page. Just wandering if anyone has ever seen them or whether they are excluded?

    They are treated the same way like com or net domains.

    That shows they are indexed but have you actually ever seen an info domains whislt searching for something?

    That's pretty much what I think too, not all but a lot of them.

    I once had a .info that ranked very high in the search engines. Number 1 for a super competitive keyword. That earn't me hundreds in a couple of days.

    all domains extensions are treated the same.

    ...spot on, I've got a number of .info's all which rank and work in exactly the same way as .com's & .co.uk's -- it ain't the domain extension, it's what you do with the site that counts! :)

    I think it would be hard to compete for big keywords with info domain, because a lot of spammers use these..

    Exactly, most people that use a lot of .infos aren't trying to develop them for long-term rankings

    I personally don't like .infos, most of them are just pure spam and junk, I wouldn't want to be associated with that group, I mean a .com only costs a few bucks...

    I've rarely heard .info's referred to this way by webmasters let alone the average surfer. And this isn't really about .com replacement; I own a good deal of keyword.info names that I couldn't possibly get as a .com.
