Can .in domain rank higher than .com domain on google.co.in SERP?

Hi all,

I want to know, if I have domain book.in, can by default it rank higher than book.com for searching keyword "book" on Google India google.co.in SERPs ?

 

changes..but google cares more to country tlds. couse they are more spesific

 

Yes, it should. You will, of course, need to do linkbuilding if competition is tough!

 

it does. because if you use chinese google, .cn's come up first basically

 

Depends on the SEO factors...If .IN is more SE optimized then it will surely rank higher than .COM

 

I haven't seen any such preferences in the .co.in version of Google which I use almost everyday. I guess it all depends on the competition. You can set the factors in Google Webmaster tools

 

It could rank higher if they search for terms for that country. Not sure if you have to be same page rank for you domain name as other one also.

 

thanks for response all...

 

The .in extension can rank higher than the .com extension but you'll need to get links, good content, and that stuff to rank better.

 

FYI
go0gle did not take into consideration of domain extension.
what matter is only PR ,content,backlink will get you high in SERpH.

 

what I asked is that by "default" can .in domain rank higher thank .com domain for the same keyword in google.co.in ?

what I mean by "default" is by excluding backlink, PR, etc....

Lets say, I register thisisdomain.in and thisisdomain.com right now, so these 2 domains are really really still fresh and new.. Then I fill these 2 domains with same content, should thisisdomain.in will show higher than thisisdomain.com on google.co.in SERP for searching keyword "this is domain" ?

 

in google india you could do pretty well and if ur traffic gets high then best
