    Hello,

    we listen that Google likes old domains..

    So if one domain name expire and i want to register it as my own name, i register it again. Doesnt domain age starts again? I mean its again counted as a new domain by Google?

    Yes its age starts again, but that does not mean google or other whois databases like domain-tools[.]com does not stores the previous domain registration and delete called 'domain drop'.

    The significant difference is 5 Years old domain is non-dropped whihc is continously registered and re-registering domain is say if a domain has expired and name is deleted from registrar and is available for new registration and this technique is called Re-registration. :D

    it will be counted from day one. if you buy a domain which was in use for two years, then your website will also be considered two year old. Check your domain name age in whois . com
