If I'm giving out links for the .com.au address am I less likely to get picked up by google search engines?

So my guess is that in the long run, your inbound links will be diluted. Blogs whose readers are from America are probably the least to be affected.<br />We just have to wait and see what the effect are :(Jensonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15324353404775893886noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-363170316363135703.post-34490477323485392322012-04-16T14:28:10.415+01:002012-04-16T14:28:10.415+01:00Thanks for the explanation, very useful.

Whilst it doesn't seem to have had a negative affect on my page ranking in google, I have noticed that my ranking on online traffic analysers, such as Alexa for example, have reduced significantly. (Having gone down from 600K (ish) to over 9 million). Anyone got any ideas if this is likely to affect my page ranking in Google in the longer term?Paul Day @ PD Architecturehttp://www.pdarchitecture.blogspot.co.uknoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-363170316363135703.post-46955117871156826922012-04-15T14:15:40.408+01:002012-04-15T14:15:40.408+01:00Your case is more complicated because you are usin...Your case is more complicated because you are using a custom domain.
