Opinion: Google places no weight over a .com comparatively to .net's and .org's.

I don't think their method of rank matters with .com or .net

**Love Sex** · 07-21-2006, 08:51 PM

a good % have hyphens and totally irrelevent so why would the extension matter at all.

**Deputy Chief Command** · 07-21-2006, 08:52 PM

extension DOES matter!!!

**Big_Red** · 07-21-2006, 08:53 PM

There is no money is SEO.

**Doctor Dre** · 07-21-2006, 08:54 PM

I think it does matter... .com have more chances to be established sites instead of se spamming.

**vvq** · 07-21-2006, 10:10 PM

you would think the more expensive extensions would have some weight placed on them over the cheaper ones. spammers aren't using the expensive tlds for spamming.

i really don't think it matters. as it shouldn't.

I'm talking about .Net's and .Org's only.

Totally hypothetical galleryseek, but if Google did have weighting, would there be a general leaning towards what may be regarded as authoratative sources?

In that case, maybe .orgs would, on average, be more of authoratative source?

**bdld** · 07-21-2006, 11:34 PM

.net .org or .com, makes no difference to google.

good point.

i think they actually do rank .com's over .net's

i guess it all comes down to the backlinks

I do believe you've just contradicted yourself.

**woj** · 07-22-2006, 12:41 AM

the difference if any is minimal...

**Kimo** · 07-22-2006, 02:03 AM

i dont think there is a differnce, but who knows

**free4porn** · 07-22-2006, 07:22 AM

i have .orgs and they rank well.

**minusonebit** · 07-22-2006, 11:51 AM

I dont think it matters much.

**wedouglas** · 07-22-2006, 01:26 PM

The reason you see more com net and org is because they are the most common. EBay could rank ebay.name high if it wanted, but everyone is already very fimiliar with the com.

**UCH** · 07-22-2006, 01:28 PM

its a fact. Agree

**dynastoned** · 07-22-2006, 01:33 PM

ive had .nets at #1 for keywords and i have had .coms at #1 for keywords. i honestly haven't seen a difference.. but it all depends on what your using your domain for of course. if your trying to make a brandable site for people to remember easily it would be best to go with a .com obviously...

**spacedog** · 07-22-2006, 01:36 PM

there is no weight whatsoever placed on the extension & that is a fact.

I have a .info in the #1 spot I also have .org & .net ranked higher than their .com namesakes, & I even have .be in the top 5 spots

Opinion: Google places no weight over a .com comparatively to .net's and .org's.
