    i think its a big factor no boubt about it

    i have had sites sitting with a mfa on there for 2 years and no rankings or clicks and they suddenly get ranked higher after i renew them.

    website age and website trust are big factors thats why i dont like .info sites

    no trust there

    You can get a general idea of the age of a site by checking the who is info and by check the internet archive. The archive usually has a copy of a site about a year after it is launched

    Yes. In general, it is a good idea to get a link from age-old domains that have a good weight with search engines.

    age of the domain is an important factor. I was doing a comparison research for the keyword "broadband" in Google.co.uk and realised that the first result (broadband.co.uk) was there because it´s 11 years old and because the domain is the targeted keyword, as in the rest of the factors is much weaker than the competitors: less content, thousands of less links...

    just keep in mind that there is a big difference between the age of a website and the age of a domain, you can always buy a 10 years old domain that has been inactive for the last 10 years but it wont help you much..(well i believe it will help a little bit)

    the real website age is calculated from the the day that a website was Indexed (cached) by google.

    Age definitely matters. In addition to the Internet Archive, Alexa has some stats about how old a web site is.

    I definitely belive that Google etc highly values old domains with aged content. It's like a good old friend that you know for a long time already and trust a lot. Thus, anything that goes there "must" be good in the eyes of Google.

    Domain age matters a lot.
    More ages means more trust (in the eyes of Googlebot).
    The more the domain has, the faster it get ranked by Google. (few good back links required).
