Does domain extension affect seo



Impact Of Domain Extension On Seo And Business Success


What Do you Think Does Domain Extensions Make Any Effect on SEO of Website . Everybody First tries to get '.COM' Extension and other extension like .info , .in etc are not liked so much .

What Do you think does domain extension put any effect on Optimization of Your Content on Search Engines .

There are neither any penalties Nor any preferences is given for Domain Extensions By google.com . All Domain Extensions are treated equally in agoogle.com web search.
However, Domain Extension do affect your search results for country specific searches. For example, a .co or .in domain will not rank as well as a .us website in a google.us web search. Also, a .co.uk site will rank better then a .us site in a google.co.uk search. 
So In Above Cases Domain Extensions have an Impact on Search Result and SEO . But Otherwise there is no inbuilt Algorithm in Search Engines That Filter Or give preference to Some Specific Domain Extension
So if you are targeting a specific country or region, try to use the Domain Extension for that country or region. If not then the TLD does not make a difference

If .COM is Not Available Then What Should We Do ?

I think the best advice in think kind of situation is to search for a different domain name, especially if the .com is owned by a competitor in your space (you can also face some legal issues in future ). 

Domain Extension Preferences :

  • If you are targeting your Product in Specific Country then Go for Domain Extension Specific to That Country Like if you are targeting United States The it good to choose .US Extension
  • If you are planning a Non-Profit Organisation Then you can choose .ORG
  • Other wise For All purposes Choose .COM Extension 

As Joel Spolsky Said - .COM Extensions are Million Times Better Than Other Extensions
