TLD Distribution

[TP_Marketing]

How important is it to spread backlinks throught .com, biz, org, net, etc?

Im looking at some competition link profiles and majority of their links are coming from .com

Thank You!

The quality of the site is more important than the TLD, I don't think it should be much of a consideration.

You may see some benefit regarding localization in terms of getting high number of appropriate country specific TLDs. But, once again, quality still counts.

However, I often notice that sites with poor backlink profiles tend to have a lot of .info domains from directories.
