By using google search for keyword site:.ext (a technique discussed in http://www.namepros.com/showthread.php?s=&threadid=11458 ), you get the following results for very popular german keywords:
----- kaufen (buy) --- game (spiel) --- reisen (travel) --- buch (book) --- liebe (love) --- average
de --- 6,570,000 --- 6,410,000 --- 7,000,000 --- 7,120,000 --- 6,770,000 --- 6,774,000
com --- 2,230,000 --- 1,920,000 --- 2,380,000 --- 1,870,000 --- 1,670,000 --- 2,014,000
at --- 851,000 --- 714,000 --- 823,000 --- 1,180,000 --- 883,000 --- 890,200
ch --- 684,000 --- 544,000 --- 1,090,000 --- 948,000 --- 595,000 --- 772,200
net --- 753,000 --- 394,000 --- 636,000 --- 647,000 --- 612,000 --- 608,400
org --- 273,000 --- 185,000 --- 197,000 --- 518,000 --- 250,000 --- 284,600
info --- 252,000 --- 69,200 --- 161,000 --- 189,000 --- 52,800 --- 144,800
cc --- 154,000 --- 145,000 --- 156,000 --- 41,200 --- 106,000 --- 120,440
us --- 233,000 --- 205,000 --- 4,430 --- 27,700 --- 6,650 --- 95,356
biz --- 83,000 --- 36,200 --- 18,800 --- 45,400 --- 12,500 --- 39,180
This shows that .info isn't as popular as everyone seems to think, at least for use in websites targetted for german speakers. In fact, it seems that .org is almost twice as popular as .info, and .info is only marginally better than .cc, a cctld everyone loves to scorn.
Your thoughts and opinions on this matter are most welcome!
