        Hi Anton,

        Unfortunately, the days of better rankings based on a domain name are over. If both of those domains were competing with each other, it would come down to on-page and off-page SEO factors, not the domain being used. Go with the domain that better matches your brand.

          Logan's correct - though I'll add that along with branding and which is most fitting to you and your target customers, I would take DA (domain authority) and historical data into account when deciding.

            I would not use a .co

            I would use anyold.com before a .co

            This preference of mine is tied to the fact that the average person has never heard of .co and will instead think that you mean .com.

            If you use gold.co then lots of people, visitors who you earned, will visit gold.com.  You will make them rich by all of the traffic that you will send.
