    Hi,

    I'm considering obtaining a .co in my niche and just wondered what people thought of them from an SEO point of view?

    I'm in the UK so am I going to struggle to get a .co up in the rankings?

    Any comments greatly appreciated.

    Well if you are from UK and wanna target UK audience try going with .CO.UK . and TLD like .co/.com/.net/.info Doesn't really effect SEO or something . They all have same importance by the Google as for my experience at least.

    I agree. I believe .co has allot of potential. If you wish to target visitors from the UK then .co.uk will be your best bet but .com, .co, .net etc will still work but may be harder in the beginning.

    hmmm I'd be careful, in my experience .info and .biz have harder time ranking - generally its best to stick with .com .org or .net - good luck!
