Applying SEO Techniques Using Different Domain Name Extensions

lifesshort · 07-12-2009, 04:29 AM

In SEO terms if you produced two identical websites and one was dot com and the other a dot info or a dot org, would there be any significant disadvantage?

In other words are you likely or less likely to gain a page 1 position within Google for having a different domain name extension over a dot com……. does Google discriminate against some extensions over others?

I thank you for any advice.

I don't know - but as far as domain names and SEO are concerned. It works in your favor to have your primary keyword phrase in your domain name.
