Go with .com or bust. - The big well known gTLDs are price-regulated, and hence are affordable. New gTLDs are not, and are often three to five times the annual cost. - .xyz is a great example: Most people do not view sites on new gTLDs are reputable or legitimate, and many organizations will block them as a default.
