The announcement of the change came directly from Google and confirmed that local senior domain names, namely national domain names will be closed. If you write www.google.com.tr domain name on your browser soon in Türkiye, Google.com will be opened.
The search giant guaranteed that this measure will not create any disruptions in the surface of the Internet. On the contrary, speed is expected to optimize and improve the management of multilingual content. It is a matter of curiosity how this move will be met by millions of users who have been associated with local domain names for years.
Google’s official statement, “Over the years, our ability to offer a local experience has developed,” he said. “In 2017, we have started to offer the same local result experience to anyone who uses the Search, regardless of writing Google.com or the country’s domain name.”
Therefore, the geographical region language you connect will determine. The Internet giant also stressed that the simplification of the system will not change the way of responding to national obligations that will remain in force. This change will be implemented gradually in the next few months.
So how will he work?
If you write google.com.tr to the browser, you will be directed to Google.com. This change will not affect the search results. So you will continue to get local results according to your location.
Here is the statement of Google’s blog:
“When you search on Google, we aim to provide the most useful information, and often includes local relevant search results. Historically, we have used the country code names such as Google.ng or Brazil for Nigeria as a part of our localized process, as part of our process of providing localized results.
Over the years, our ability to provide a local experience developed. In 2017, whether they are using Google.com or the CCTLD of their countries, we have started to provide the same experience as local results for everyone who uses search.
Due to this improvement, there is no longer need for the country -level domain names. Therefore, to facilitate people’s experience in Search, we will start directing the traffic from these CCTLDs to Google.com. This change will gradually come into play in the coming months and you may be asked to re -enter some of your search preferences in this process.
We indicate that this update will change what people see in the browser address bar, but will not affect the way of searching the way of working, or that we will not change our obligations within the scope of national laws. “
