The older your domain is the more authority it gets form Google and that it is used by spamers. Domain age is quite important SEO factor.

Domain age is similar to our age. The date your domain was purchased / established till the date it is running.
Domain age does play a role when it comes to rankings. Older domains are well established and have already acquired a lot of links which the new domains have yet to acquire.
A new domain always needs an extra effort to grab a space in SERPs while on the other side its not necessary that an old domain will rank high just because its well established.
Your ranking depends on your reputation as a domain with bad reputation will not rank even if its 10 yrs old.
As such domain age does not matter as far as your website is well optimized.

Yes domain age can be considered as a positive feature for domains operating over the net, but provided that during the months and years of functioning on the net, some established sites too have been attached to the addresses because parked domains which are without websites, even if remain over the net for ten years might be very much similar to the newly registered domains online as web trends and presence online are important.

It is very important to have access to the websites that have been powered by links plus useful contents and if they are old, the better. Some webmasters may purchase domains hoping to sell them at higher prices in the future but they forget to add pages to the sites and also build links for them. These types of domains may not seem that powerful because they are similar to the new domains which still need promotions.

When calculating the SEO value of a website (particularly when comparing with competition) SEOs generally count the age of a domain. The more the age, the better.

Domain age is an important factor in SEO. Domain age is considered by Google in determining the page rank of a page. Domain age is also considered by Google in determining the duplicate content in some issues. If two pages have similar content, Google considers the page with older domain age as the first publisher.
