Hi,

I was wondering if anyone had any knowledge or any data on the following situation.

a) All things being equal, and you had a .org and .org.uk who wins in the Serps results for the "UK"?

b) Does .net's have less weight in the UK, I have always struggled to get .net's ranking, plus I see very few .nets on the serps in the UK. Or is it just me?

c) All things being equal, and you had a .net and .org.uk who wins in the Serps results for the "UK"?

I know loads of people will say .org's etc are charity, and you people view .org's as charity etc, and you should think about branding etc. I understand all those arguments (look at seomoz.org not a charity). These are not spam websites. However, this is a specific question about who would win, or if there is any data available about who win's in a normal race on the serps in the UK. I am not interested in world rankings just the UK. Thank you.

Hi, thanks for your reply.

Are you saying .org.uk will beat .org and .net, all other things being equal?

Just saw this Scootek.

Yep, agree, no contest .uk

As Sandra says, .net is top level so makes targeted traffic more hard work.

Not a fan of org.uk for a commercial business, but .net is a useful as a chocolate teapot.
