Google to Redirect Country Code Domains to Google.com
4 days ago
Google will redirect its country code top-level domains (ccTLD) to Google.com, meaning users of domains like google.fr or google.ng will be redirected. This change is due to improvements in providing local search experiences since 2017, making ccTLDs unnecessary. The rollout will happen gradually, and users may need to re-enter search preferences. While the browser address bar will change, search functionality and compliance with national laws will not be affected.
