      I ask to Godaddy if there is an SEO impact between buying a url for 1 year or 10 years. They said me that there is no impact, however, I read the historical URL has one. So, the question is : buying with 1 year and autorenew might be the right choice.

      Warm regards,

        They were wrong. Buy a domain for 10 years.

          Hi John

          Google's public statements about this say that the length of your domain contract makes no difference. In the big picture, maybe if Google needs to dig for signals, perhaps it could have a .001% (tiny) impact, but I'd imagine they are using much more important signals. In other words - I wouldn't really even worry about it 🙂
