If I have signle word domain in .US and .info which one is more valuable?

considring the word is a general term! (Not country specific?)
 
Non-hack? Really won't matter - traffic will be based on SEO and not type in for either.

I'd say go with the .US if you're trying to go for US traffic, if not, then .info.
 
.info 99.99% of time

.us is crud apart from geo and maybe an exceptional hack and top keywords.

the top keywords and geo would trump the .us anyway in .info
 
Thanks for the input.

where can I get a .us sales report for one word domains.
 
scour dnjournal sales lists, archive.
http://dnjournal.com/archive/domainsales-archive.htm

the search function don't work too good so scour each section, month etc
look in cctld sales

also namebio.com

also google it. there aint been many to be honest. i think the biggest was video, and that was took off winner / owner............... twice!

they're very officious, the registry
 
I would go with .info
But if relevant to .us traffic then why not.

I've had more success with .us from a sales perspective with a couple of $xxxx sales in the past year or so.

.us is flat, flat, flat at the moment.

I am seeing very little movement in .us at present.

I am seeing several strong sales in .info.

And I had a couple of strong sales in .info last year on sedo.

Naturally, a good domain is a good domain in any extension.

But I really liked siliconvalley.info at more than $20K I believe (had so many auctions I was involve in I can not keep them straight.

One that recently sold that I am so pissed about missing is muy.info. Went for an amazing $166. OUCH!

Dubai info $35,000
Movie info $7,000
Tampa info $3,500
OVH info $3,000
Income info $2,100
FinanzInformatik info $2,054
Funeral info $1,750
ACMP info $1,488
MusicDownloads info $1,300
WebDeveloper info $1,300
Reich info $1,235
Stuehle info $1,161
Lifo info $1,000
Vote info $1,000
Fluessiggas info $1,000
Aberdeen info $875
INS info $801
Automobiles info $750
Veneers info $750
Gallery info $700

Two on that list are December 08. The rest are all Jan 9, 2009

Definitely info imo, unless you have something like cheapcars.us
Agree with jasdon that the .us extension will work best from the sales perspective.
