Hey, I need to bulk register a couple of domains and I'm confused between .site, .xyz and .info.

Namecheap is currently giving .xyz for $0.99 a year. And Dynadot is giving .info and .site for $1.99 a year. Both offer free WHOIS as usual.

Now which domain to choose? It will be for Affiliate and CPA purpose.

Thanks in advance BHWers :)
 
Thanks for the input. Just wondering does not .site rank in google if given good backlinks? I will just redirect the domain to the sales page. :p
None of the TLDs have any Google penalty, but depending on your niche you may see different traffic and conversions than you would with a com.

Aside from the obvious popularity of .com, suppose I'm promoting a weight loss product and I get the domain weightloss.xyz VS weightloss.com
On which factors will my conversion vary as I will just redirect the domain to the direct sales page?

If someone sees xyz in the serp, they might be less likely to click in the first place because they perceive it to be less trustworthy than com. Or depending on your audience, the xyz might interest them enough to get a click, and a niche-specific nTLD would be just another selling point in your favor.

To use a live-business example of one of my clients, he used ClientNameLaw.com for years and got semi-decent traffic. He switched to Clientname.info for a while, and a few other genetic nTLDs, and the traffic dropped off despite the serp staying identical. Then he switched again to ClientName.law, and he ended up with more traffic than he ever had with com. (ClientName.attorney also had low traffic, but I'm still split-testing a few long nTLDs to see if the length was an issue.)

In the health niche, I expect the same would apply. WeightLoss.dog would almost certainly get less traffic than WeightLoss.info, and both would get less traffic than WeightLoss.recipes.

Oh, now I get it. So suppose, it's a women's skin care product. What should be the perfect niche domain name for this?

skinproduct.care ?
 
I always go for .us domains on Namecheap But I I had to choose one among .site, .xyz, .info then I would go for .info.
 
I have bad experience with .info and amazon affiliate sites. Better choice .xyz
 
.info is more trustworthy then the others, so I think will goes better with public and the the price difference it insignificant so it's not an issue .
 
In my years of net travel, I have never seen an info site. Several Kodi add-ons use xyz.
