    I was told google will provide different ranking for URL ends up with different word .For example : example.org will get different result to example.com .My question is which is better for chosing a URL ? Google like (.org) better or (.com)?

    Google does not rank any differently based on domain suffix.

    No clue about Google's ranking system for the extentions, but there's a reason .com is the most valuable -- the vast majority of the public have no idea there are other extensions other than .com.

    Hello jackson,

    go through the statement given below...

    "Matt Cutts at Google (and other Googlers, too) has repeatedly confirmed that the domain name extension does not pay into the Google algorithm."

    >com is the most valuable and recognizable suitable for most needs. .org is more for like none-profits and none business activities .net is more for like back end and an alternative if .com is not available for the name you are looking. Is always good to purchase both of them if available. .biz is targeted for business but while their are some good example of sites using .biz is mostly a flop.

    .biz sucks, .com is the golden standard of domains, .net is a good alternative to .com, and .org should be used for not-for-profits.
