For once, .ngo is more credible. From wikipedia:

> Unlike the more prevalent .org domain, which is also managed by the Public Interest Registry, .ngo will require validation of the registrant's non-governmental status

It's more credible on paper, but the common internet user is more likely to know and trust .org domains then any of the new TLDs.

Yes, and it is slightly amusing to think that an ordinary internet user is going to make a decision about whether to trust .org more than .ngo domains by checking Wikipedia. That's wikipedia dot org...
