Question Which is better.

Which is better a .info or a .com TLD?

Thinking of making a directory, and wonder which is better.

Thanks in advance for your input.

.com, of course... .info is a little hard to remember, plus .com looks better because .info domains are a bit cheaper, and ur visitors will think that u r just been stingy

Thanks guys and dolls for the input. I think I will go with .com. I am wondering, how Google ranks a .info vs a.com with all things being equal?

I don't think they care...

What happens, though, is people get the site name and not the extension. They will remember websitepros or whatever and automatically put .com...

This means that you are steering traffic to your competitors, usually. I mean, how nice do you wanna be? Not that nice, surely!
