    Hi,

    Lets say there are two domains (a .com and .info) which have the exact same amount of backlinks and PR etc that are linking to my new website, would a .com deliver more juice than a .info?

    Domain extension contribute in passing link building credit if and only if they are with country specific content or some authority domain, say, .gov or .edu domain.

    .com and .info domains are same for search engines.

    Domain extension will not make any difference. But domain extensions like edu and gov can influence ranking. Google Panda update seems to place more weight on authority sites. Government sites will get more ranking that other sites.
