.biz sites dont rank well

I have just bought my 1st domain .biz, did my usual things to get it indexed and a week has passed and still not even indexed.

I usually just create a wordpress blog, add a few unique articles and bang indexed within 2 days. My last .com site was indexed 21 hours ago.

My stats says google bots have been so maybe they dont like .biz.

My lesson learned is that just go for .com, .org, .net, & .co.uk. or even try adding other words at the end like reviews, buy, etc.

I figured that even though its a TLD it would be easy, apparantly not, may try and throw backlinks at it and see what happens.

What are your thoughts on .biz domains


Thanks
andy

    .biz can rank very well. It all depends on you and the niche. Mostly you.

    .biz used to have the stigma of being spammy. Over time that has
    dwindled away.

    why would you think it would be as easy as 1,2,3? There's just too much
    of that going on. Has nothing to do with .biz, however.

    I've seen .biz's rank well, but I don't see them very often. It's not worth taking the risk to create a .biz when .com, .net, and .org always rank well. Find another website name if you can't get .com, net, or .org.

    Plus, you need to worry about the users too. Most people don't click on .biz because they don't see it in the search engines very often. They don't trust the websites as much as a .com. I tend to avoid .info's and stuff like that when I'm searching, so other people must be doing the same thing.

    I was just stating that doing the same things I do with other sites, it takes much longer to get indexed
