      Hi, our company website is about freight forwarding, and im feared about .me extension they have taken.  The location is for Dubai and the website is running google ads with a no-indexed landing page. I have the doubt, that our cargo company based website shipwaves.me is not receiving Google ads attention in that case. Besides, the other confusion is shipwaves.me takes time to rank for the keywords with high search or not other than .com extension. I'm confused why this company has taken, .me extension and anybody got the idea- is this .me is a top-level domain or it takes more time than .com domains.

        If you're able to score just as many links as you think you can over time the top-level domain shouldn't matter. Overall you're likely better off picking a .com name as it's more common but in itself the impact or difference in a TLD is minimal.

        It surely shouldn't be the only reason in my opinion on why you would want to switch TLDs as that process will likely hurt SEO more.

          • Free tool, and it ranks well for adult sites and checking if they are down, will that hurt us with ranking for normal sites with google?
