Does Google think better of .ORG domains?

I was reading discussions somewhere on here about google giving greater weight to links on.EDU and .ORG sites.

Does this mean that if I have a website called mysite.org google will give it some sort of additional preference than if I called it mysite.com?

Thanks

 

Google doesn't give any extra weight to .ORG over .COM.

Generally .ORG sites might be disproportionately more trustworthy in who they link to than .COM sites so it might be possible to see such a trend, but the extra value will be because of the actual sites rather than the top-level domain.

 

Google does not give extra value to any tld. The perceived strength of certain tld's is derived from the sites that typically have them.

 

google _only_ gives extra values to country tlds, so you will rank better on google.de with a .de domain

 

Google gives extra values to EDU domains.

 

Thanks for you help guys

Where do I register them?

 

I don't see any difference in site extensions at all. If sites have all the relevant they will show up.

Backlinks
Content
SEO
Good Naviagtion
etc

 

.org is no big deal and anyone can get it. No special love for org. I can understand edu coz they cant be registered by any tom dick and harry

 

.EDU is not available for public registration - it is only for educational institutions and almost exclusively for the United States.

 

I think .org and .edu has a little more weight (authoritive) than the others.

.com is still my favorite

 

Wrong. Matt Cutts said himself there is no favour given to .org over .com etc

 

I know I was joking

 

i know edu names are pretty popular with google

 

No domain extensions don't get specific bonuses.

 

bot are the same see wikipedia.org how it has got successfull in google! with lots of .com domains

 

If google thinks better of .org domain names THANK GOD!

Thank you Mr. G!

 

That's right, except country specific domains for the country specific google search and .gov, .edu and .mil for the main search index

 

I have a .org domain name, A5B.ORG nothing special to people.

 

what about .ms

 

Because of the preponderance of discount deals on .org domains of late, .org has gotten the reputation of being a spam haven. As a result of that it is believed that Google has started to discount the reputational value of .org in SERPs. As for .edu, a lot of people say yes they do get reputational value.
