McAfee reveals that the most dangerous websites are those hosted on “.hk†(Hong Kong), “.cn†(China) and “.info†(information) domains. Dangerous — meaning, malicious malware sites or just plain old spammy sites.
Of all “.hk†sites McAfee tested, it flagged 19.2 percent as dangerous or potentially dangerous to visitors; it flagged 11.8 percent of “.cn†sites and 11.7 percent of “.info†sites that way. That’s 1 in every 5 .HK domains!
Other risky domains include “.ro†(Romania), with 6.8 percent, and “.ru†(Russia), with 6 percent of sites flagged as dangerous.
A little more than 5 percent of the sites under the “.com†domain — the world’s most popular — were identified as dangerous. dotPH sites are nowhere on the list, which is good right?

Kenneth says:
.INFO domain extensions were considered as a spammers domain if I’m not mistaken?
Also, most ccTLD’s like the China one’s are harmful due to their undescribed and unclear content IMO.
Patrick says:
@Kenneth, correct. Maybe because you can register a .info domain very cheap. ooopss..i got a .info domain. hehe.
Erin says:
.ph are not in the list because of the exorbitant prices being charged for it. and filipinos have a reputation of wanting more for less so they opt for the more non-localized or cheap domains (like .info and .tk).
ciao!

“The Philippines (.ph) experienced a 270% increase in overall riskiness”
The pdf report showed that .ph got riskier.

So much for China’s Great Firewall lol :D
JC John SESE Cuneta says:
It’s a firewall to protect their citizens from us, not to protect us from them. Haha joke only :p
Well, that’s the very reason why I stopped using my .info domains and switched to other TLDs or ccTLDs (not .ph tho, too expensive, not even in my list of ccTLDs to consider and recommend).
Andre says:
No spammers can afford .ph
Kiven says:
.ph domains pWns spammers.
SELaplana says:
so, next time, i will use the .ph for spamming …. LOL
JC John SESE Cuneta says:
Lol @SELaplana
I guess being expensive keeps the domain from being use for spamming. Haha.
web hosting expenses says:
Be it an online business or a product promotion, you can make good revenue
out of your website only if you host it using
a reliable service. Unquestionably you can still reveal the exact same added benefits as aforementioned plans.
The cost deduction does not mean that the customers are deprived of any features.
