Domain name .org SERP disadvantage

Copy linkTweet thisAlerts:
Mar 17.2007

hi all, i bought 5 .org domains and currently trying to seo it and trying hard to make it appear first page in SERP for the keywords. In my case, the keyword is the domain name. with no extra character or “-” etc.

I found out, its harder to rank a .org, than rank a .com.
i know because i have 10 .com running, and they ranked fast…compare to these .org

Is this a fact??

I have yet to see anyone give concrete proof of your theory. I think if anything you could be getting penlized for using a .org for a non .org reason. Which could be very likely, if your not.

All extensions are treated equal. Only .edu and .gov's have something special for them.

Success!
