Domain age ?
Hello,
It has been seen that as your domain name gets older, its chances of achieving higher ranking in search engine increases. The domain name that's very new to the Google search engine might be blocked from getting high ranking which is known as sandbox effect. This sentence would give the notion that if you are launching a new domain than you are less likely to get good ranking for sometime. Thus it might de-motivate many webmasters who might think its futile to try to get higher rank in Google.
But this is not true, as the domain age has nothing to do with the ranking they achieve is less time or more time. It depends upon the link profile and the manner in which it is developed. However old sites have more link profile than newly launched one, for instance site that is 2 years old has larger link profile than those who became online recently.
Thanks
