    It doesn't make a lot of difference but I think that you should get .com's if possible unless your website is specific to a country. If that's the case, you should get extentions such as .ca (for Canada), .co.uk (for UK), or other country-specific extentions.

    Originally, the three letter extensions after the dot (or Top Level Domain/TLD) were meant to denote whether the domain name was being used for business (.com) charity/non-profit (.org) or for a technology based company (.net). However, with the explosion of the Internet (and specifically, the world wide web) as a new business medium, the lines were blurred, and companies and individuals alike started cross-registering domains (ie. Me.com, me.net, me.org) just to protect their interests. Now, .com, .net, and .org names (the generic Top Level Domains) can be used for any purpose.

    .org, .net and .edu are considered a bit better.

    I think .com is much more popular than .net so if you have a website that is a .net and another person owns a .com. Chances are, they might steal your visitors so to protect your interest, purchase both

    Godaddy's Sales devalued .info domains a good amount........

    .99 per domain spawned alot of spam sites

    Long story short - domain extensions has absolutely no effect on SEO (see SEO Explained). They are simply categories of Internet domain names. An Sk domain (a country specific TLD for Slovakia) with great content can rank just as high or even higher as a Com domain with the same amount of good content. The same is true for all extensions.
