.biz and .info are older gTLDs created by ICANN in 2001. .biz was meant for "business" and .info for "information". Today there are 2+ million .biz and 5+ million .info domains worldwide. But usage is low β they're rarely picked for new projects.
.biz and .info purpose
.biz β short for "business". For small businesses and any commercial site. But over years spammers used this TLD heavily, hurting its reputation.
.info β short for "information". For information, reference, and wiki-style sites. Related to .org, but can be used commercially too.
Price and registration
Among the cheapest TLDs: .biz $5-15/year, .info $3-12/year. Premium names $500-50,000+.
Via Sayt.uz .biz 169,000 sum/year, .info 149,000 sum/year.
No restrictions.
Drawbacks
Low trust β users perceive .biz and .info as "shady". Often associated with spam and malware.
Email problems β Gmail and Outlook spam filters scrutinize email from .biz and .info more strictly.
Pro brand difficulty β building a brand on .biz or .info takes more time and money than on .com.
Who uses them now?
Rarely chosen for new projects. Existing users β long-time holders from the 2000s. Spam and malicious sites β hurting the reputation further.
Sayt.uz practice
0.5% of Sayt.uz clients use .biz or .info. Mostly as an alternative when .com isn't available. Tip: don't pick these TLDs for a new project β alternatives like .uz, .com, .io are more numerous and better. If you already have a legacy .biz or .info, gradually move to a main .com.
