Default Buying domain

I will buy a domain that is the same as the keyword I want to target on google. What I wonder is if google will value domain extension diffrently? Is .com worth more then .us for search engine result? The reason I ask is because .com and .net is already taken. What domain extension would you recommend me to register?

The experts always advice to buy .com domains but i think it all depends on how much time and effort are you going to put in your site's SEO.

Regards.

The best domains to have for branding, SEO, or just professionalism are top level
domains such as .com. Also, if you cannot register your targeted keyword rich
domain as it is...Try the hyphenated version for example www.your-keyword.com.

Absolutely get .com domain....its professional and nobody forgets .com versus .net .ws and other exotics

Godaddy is very cheap, and if you google godaddy coupons, you may get one for $7.49.
Another service is Bluehost.com

Getting .com for a domain is a very good option. You can visit godaddy.com to be able to look for something more for a name of your website with a .com. You can have name which a less expense.

If you cannot get .com and .net, you can also try if its still available, .org. .info sometimes might not be really good. I try to follow some warriors who said to stay away from .info

You can still rank really well with .net, .info, etc but I agree with others here they and get the .com first, and also a hypen between keywords in a .com is still good as well.
