Does using a country domain (TLD) negatively effect a site's search ranking if the site content isn't country specific?
- by Alexizamerican
I have a website in which the content is not country specific. The TLD is currently .it but the company is hosted and based in the United States. I'm wondering if a .it domain will negatively effect the site's search rankings. Is it better to use a .com TLD?
For example (I don't actually own these domains), would the domain love.it have a worse ranking than loveit.com? (Assuming the content of the sites is the same)
I've been searching everywhere for an answer with not much luck. Any advice would be very helpful.
