Question about SeoMoz.Org

I want to ask that while calculating .edu's and .gov's, does this tool also calculate country specific tld's like .edu.ie or .gov.ie?

And how does Google calculate the value of these cctld's?

 

I dont think it includes 2nd level ccTLD .edu domains...but send rand an email and ask!

 

Even I think the same. Anyways, the second part was

How does google evaluate them? Have they got the same value as .edu and .gov?

 

I very much doubt that they'd be treated the same as a top level edu or gov.

 

Edu and gov links do not have any extra value in Google.

The reason some people see a boost in rankings due to edu links is because in a lot of cases the edu site was a very old and trusted site.

 

I have been hearing that .edu's and .gov's provide extra value and are preferred over .com's and .net's. I got SOME of them but they didn't provide any value at all.

 

Well thats what Matt Cutts says whether you choose to believe it or not is a different matter.

 

It makes no difference to me. I go for quality links from old, trusted sites. Whether the site is an edu or a .com is of no concern.
