Is Domain Age Fact?

[Ninja Marketer11]

I heard from udemy tutorial that right now domain age isn't fact anymore for SEO. What is your opinion?

If you are a beginner you must have experience, if you are experienced you must have quality. Google has about 200 elements to rank your page so verything is very important, one good and more ... is total good.

Do you have the checklist of 200 factor for ranking? If you, would you like to share with us? It would be the great stuff for the newbie.

Per Matt Cutts:

"The popular belief has been that older domains do better in search results and are given extra favor due to their age. The idea is that an older domain that has been established has earned a greater level of trust with Google than a younger domain that is not as established. Matt admits that this is true to a point, but domain age is an insignificant factor that really carries very little weight in the Google algorithm."

Matt then goes on to list the factors that are more important for a site to rank well in Google:

• Unique, high quality content
• The quantity of content
• External backlinks to your content

It is true that search engines old domains, however, search engines also give preferences to the updated website. Google will always show the post that was updated a month ago than the post that was published three years ago even if the three years old post is better.

• Unique, high quality content

• The quantity of content

• External backlinks to your content

I would second this thought. High Quality Content + High PR backlinks.. period.

PS: Of course everything white hat only.

Domain age is fact for ranking. But, if your content is poor than age is nothing. So, content, keyword & age is fact. The largest tutorial site in Bangladesh.
