      Do you think I should switch my domain to a .com and use ccTLDs method for my other international domains ?

      The problem is that my .dk domain(norwell.dk) has a better SEO ranking that my .com domain (norwelloutdoorfitness.com) and also differs slightly in name. The primary keyword I want to rank is ' outdoor fitness' which is in the name of 'norwelloutdoorfitness.com', thus over the long-term providing better benefits.

      Let me know what you think.

      Thanks,

      Andrei

        There are a number of things that go into the decision to use ccTLDs or not.

        1. Will your content change at all across the different country sites? So if you had .dk and .co.uk, would those two sites have different content at all?
        2. What countries do you sell to or are you world wide?
        3. Do you users in different countries need to see different content? Meaning are there any substantial differences in buying behavior or needs?

        Answer those questions and we can go from there.
