When people search in Google, won’t a .com be favored ?

Even though .com domain extensions have been around longer, that doesn’t mean newer gTLDs will receive different treatment when it comes to search engine rankings.  According to John Mueller, a Webmaster Trends Analyst at Google, “overall, our systems treat new gTLDs like other gTLDs (like .com & .org). Keywords in a TLD do not give any advantage or disadvantage in search.”
