Does Google News Inclusion Affect Organic Rankings?

[RCNOnlineMarketing]

Hello SEO Gurus,

Here's a question I've been unable to find an answer for: if you manage to get a publishing website or blog included in the Google News aggregate, can it negatively affect organic search visibility?

I've never read anything that explicitly says so, but I have both read and experienced how e-commerce sites often have difficulty in ranking high for both organic and shopping searches. It seems that Google balances out visibility between the two.

Has anyone had any experience with a website or blog that managed to rank high for the same high-value keyword on both organic search and news search?

Thanks in advance!

Mike

I wouldn't foresee an issues but to be honest I have no idea. I'm interested as well.

I cant see why Google would penalise a news site for being indexed in Google News?
