.in .co .us .me ...bleh

Unfortunately the keywords I've chosen (for the most part) already have domains registered for them apart from domains like .in, .co, .us, .me, etc.

Except I have one keyword that still has a .net and .org available.

What I want to know is how much weight that carries, if at all. I'm not sure if I should go with the .net or .org or whether I should settle for a .co or something. The keyword available for .net/.org doesn't have as nice of a "face value", it doesn't make as nice a sounding domain name and website title than the others.

Any thoughts would be much appreciated.

.net is the best.

I think it depends on what you want to target, more direct entries or more visits by search engine. For search engines the domain isn't important, so you could go with a .in or .co but if the domain should be easy to remember, I would go with a .net, because easy to remember instead of .in or .me.

The .CO is a wide-open name space with literally millions of exciting, memorable options for branding your online presence!
.CO not only has global appeal, but it is also closely associated to "COmpany," "COrporation," and "COmmerce". Plus with the huge rise of online social networking through communities which are COnnecting and COmmunicating, the .CO domain allows your brand to stand out from the crowd!
