Hello All,
I understand that when a name is purchased at Pre-Release it keeps it's age. My question is, does anyone know if Google's algorithm catches that the name dropped to Pre-Release, causing it to be less successful at SEO as a name that never dropped to Pre-Release? In other words, a name that you purchased directly from an owner as opposed to a name you catch at Pre-Release (with the same age).

Second question, how important are the ages of backlinks? I know that link farms are now worthless, but are new quality backlinks not worth as much as old quality backlinks (for SEO purposes)?
Any thoughts/help on these questions are appreciated.

no penalty for pre-release names, other than existing penalties that they may carry, like if it was used as a spam email address




and new quality backlinks can have same weight or better, in comparison to old quality backlinks, depending on content of site they are linked to/from.

imo...

I'd say aged links are way better.

Think about this scenario (assume the following)

You only need ten links to rank for a term (purple pickle depot). Websites are both the same (content & design) and even the same age. Pickle industry.

You have ten links with that term used as the keywords that are all five years old at least.

Some other guy gets ten links yesterday with the same term.

Which site will rank better for the term???

I have several websites were old links have more weight. I even reg'd a domain that had totally dropped and was off line for months and it regained it SERP position because of its aged links. I'm talking number one one spot for a term.

Age matters.

well as far as i know, quality aged links are still the basis of Google when ranking a website, and there would be no penalty for pre-releasing domain names.

Its all depend on many factors , a "new" link from the home page of cnn.com will be worth much much more then 10 years old link from some obscure website , also you have the anchor text factor , the total out going links on the specific page etc etc .
