If you're just building a spammy site, a .info with several dashes in the name works just as good. But, if you're trying to build a business, I'd recommend getting a decent .com name. A lot of people don't know this, but you can pick up good names in the secondary market for a few hundred or a few thousand dollars. It may make sense to a new business to put a bit of cash out up front to get a good name, than to settle for a stupid name that nobody can spell. TLD doesn’t matter for organic search rankings.
