There is incorrect data in the story “Will shorter domain names boost dot biz?” on the number of registered domain extensions. Contrary to the numbers cited in the piece, .BIZ has more than 2 million domain name extensions registered. According to at least two sources, ICANN (http://www.icann.org...onthly-reports/) and www.dailychanges.com, almost 80 million .com extensions have been registered, contrary to the 23 million .com extensions cited as being registered. Your readers can go to these sites for accurate information on registrations. ICANN, for example, is the entity to which Registries (i.e. NeuStar for .BIZ) are required to provide accurate monthly reports.

I think .biz extension is in demand in the industry, as .com domains having 1 or 2 characters are no longer. Matt Cutt in a statement described that domain extension dont matter in terms of SEO. So you can buy any extension for your business. As .biz represents business domain, so its better to register a .biz domain having short name. There are many best .biz domains available in the market, some of these are:
7.biz, email.biz, tips.biz, 9.biz
