U posljednjih nekoliko dana smo dobili više od 500 komentara na SEO i domene imena i stotine fantastičnih pitanja, uključujući ...

  • Je li bitno da li imamo. Com,. Net,. Biz, org., (Itd.) za SEO svrhe?
  • Ako je vaš glavni ključna domena je otišao, što je utjecaj korištenja crtice?

  • Koja je najbolja praksa za dodavanje riječi na početku ili na kraju domene / fraza - što je bolje?
  • bi bilo pametno da se registrirate naziv domene u top tri TLD-a samo da bi natjecatelji na zaljev?

Danas ćemo odgovoriti na sva ova pitanja (i više) - i dobiti u praktičnim orasi-i-vijci o tome kako optimizirati domene za SEO.

Prije nego što učiniti, želim vas upoznati s Kenny Goodmana . Tijekom sljedećih nekoliko dana, Kenny je pristao podijeliti neke od svojih "ulica pameti" oko imena domena i SEO, i objasnite kako on dobiva neke [iskreno] smiješan vraća iz domena i SEO.

Kenny Goodman i dobivanje rezultata od Domene

Kenny je izvorno napravio njegov novac dominira olovo generacije strane nekih od najvažnijih hiper konkurentnim industrijama širom financije, telekomunikacije, noćne klubove (promicanje Ministry Of Sound klubova u Velikoj Britaniji) i čak Skip bicikala (dumpster iznajmljivanje). Dvije tvrtke on je stvorio do sada su vrijednost procjenjuje na preko 10 milijuna dolara.

To je kroz olovo generacije koje Kenny brusio svoje vještine oko SEO, SEO i za imena domena.

Domene kao "virtualne nekretnine"

U isto vrijeme, Kenny je počeo liječenje domene kao što su nekretnine nakon što je vidio da bi mogao bolje vraća iz njegove domene od svojih cigle i mort svojstava - kupnju, adaptaciju i izgradnju domene - onda leasing ili prodaje ih za veliki profit .

  • U jednom nedavnom transakcije Kenny dolara kupio 69 domene, i prodao nekoliko tjedana za $ 25.000 - 36.132% Return on Investment (pokušajte da radi u nekretnine!)
  • U drugom je kupio £ 500 (Velika Britanija) domenu, dobio je rangiran na prvoj stranici na Googleu, a zatim ga prodaju za £ 12.000 (to je brzi profit od preko $ 17.000 USD ili 2300% povrata ulaganja.)

(On je također koristi jedinstvenu strategiju za dobivanje domene, a zatim ih iznajmljivanja za velike tvrtke za mjesečnu naknadu, zarada si zdrav u tijeku priliv novca iz svake domene umjesto prodaje domenu za jednokratno naknadu - ali da bi dobili tu strategiju, morat ćete sloja s njim dobro bocu crnog vina.)

Kenny je pomogla sastaviti niz videa na imena domena i SEO da se (nadamo se) će vam dati dobar uvid u to kako Kenny odabire, otkriva i dobit od imena domena.

Danas želim podijeliti s vama prva dva videa ...

Domain Name SEO 101

U svom prvom videu Kenny nas vodi kroz osnove optimizacije domene - Domain Name SEO 101 - što je domena, a što je to što određuje da se jaz između dobar naziv domene i loš naziv domene.

YouTube Preview slike

Ključ fokus ovog videa je kritična razlika između točno podudaranje, poklapanje izraza i širokog podudaranja optimiziranim domena, i kako tražilice daju točno podudaranje optimizirane domene viši rang.

Razumijevanje Domain Name SEO - Odgovori na pitanja

U ovom drugom videa Kenny će se odgovoriti na pitanja koje se poduzimaju ravno iz posljednjih Blog Komentari - dok objasniti mnoge temeljne koncepte važno je znati kada se optimizirati svoje domene.

Ovaj drugi video usredotočuje na pitanja:

  • Koji je najbolji naziv domene nastavak -.... Com, net, org, com.au, itd. - to važno?
  • Ukoliko želite izbjeći rastavljanje riječi u nazive domena?
  • Da li "ključna riječ gustoća" utjecati na imena domena?
  • Dodavanje prefiksa i sufiksa za domene - što su pravo i krivo načina?
  • YouTube Preview slike

    U ovom video Kenny nudi svoje osobno iskustvo oko ključnih čimbenika i kako da ste mu dali bolje rezultate, te daje smjernice oko neke od više žestoko raspravljalo točaka oko domene optimizacije.

    U sljedećem blogu, mi ćemo pogledati neke od specifičnih strategija Kenny je koristiti za pronaći mnoge od svojih najprofitabilnijih domena. Provjerite jeste li se vratiti za taj jedan.

      Google ima randomizacije faktor ugrađen u njega na ljestvici, da bi njihov sustav teže decypher - vrsta kao što neki šifriranje tehnologije učiniti, dodali su neke bezvrijedne na protok podataka kako bi se teže decypher inače će se obrazac predvidljiva.

      Lijep članak. Bilo bi lijepo znati nazive domena koji su činili takvu dobit, a kako je to učinio. Sada bi za put više zanimljiv čitanje. Mislim da je to gdje dečki idu krivo, ako su pokazali više u dubinu, detaljni, specifični savjeti u tome uspjeti, onda više ljudi poput mene će biti skloniji platiti za svoje usluge. Cijenim svaki savjet imate za ponuditi ništa manje.


      Kenny Goodman je odgovorio:

      Hi Derek - Velika točka i jedan sam uzeti u obzir, ali kad sam prodati naziv domene ili web stranicu za nekoga samo želim prodaju. Da mi je zakomplicirati prodaju ih tražeći da potpišu dokument omogućava mi da kažem svijetu o detaljima prodaje, to će biti još jedna prepreka za prodaju da mi ne treba.

      Nadam se da ovo pomaže


      Candee odgovorio:

      Iz sveg srca se slažu. Svaki guru vani touts milijune oni čine on-line, ali nikada vam pokazati stranice (ili u ovom slučaju domena) koji su činili ih milijunaši. IMHO, vjerojatno dobio sve stvarno bogati od prodaje svoje podatke za ljude poput nas. Tko zna. Možda nitko od njih nije imao mjesto, ali samo prodao svoju posebnu "Sustav" za dobivanje bogate na internetu. Jeremy Palmer je samo guru vani da zaista pokazali neke od stranica koje je snimio ili se zarađivati ​​novac sa.

      Ja mogu iskreno reći da su informacije koje sam dobio od jednostavno kupnje tržište Samurai (što je strašan program) je neke od najboljih koje sam ikada imao. Jasne, koncizne, razumljivo čak i novorođen. To je jedna od najboljih investicija koju sam ikad napravio, a ja sam proveo tisuća dolara pokušava pronaći tajnu zarađivati ​​novac online. Prošlo je gotovo pet godina, a ja sam još uvijek nigdje u blizini gdje bih htio biti. Drugim riječima, još uvijek ne mogu prestati moj posao dan. Ipak, ono što sam vidio do sada je više nego paperje tvari kao što ste već istakao.


      Carl je odgovorio:

      Dobar poziv Candee, našao sam isto previše ..

      Ja sam gledati vids, i da su ok, ali oni zapravo nije puno reći ... sve što sam čuo mu reći da je svatko "u SEO zajednici vrlo je sporno" - nije baš uvjerljiv odgovor. Kenny, bilo bi bolje da možda dati neke statistike ili neke brojke o zašto mislite da je - ili ono što su otkrili da raditi za vas?

      Ja često naći da su ljudi (pogotovo u IM niši) ne objašnjava zašto su to stvari - čak i kada kupiti njihove tečajeve ili materijale, oni samo reći što trebate učiniti ovo ili ono.

      Kenny, bilo bi dobro dati razlog zašto bi učiniti nešto više nešto drugo. npr.. Ja bih izabrati X način to rade jer stalno poklanja više pažnje, nadmašio Y način obavljanja stvari.

      To je, mislim da će počistiti neke od zbunjenih pojedinaca i novorođen sam tako često vani u IM zemljišta.

      Samo moj 2c

      Ken,

      Zašto ne ih parkirati negdje da ste zaraditi novac, kao što su SEDO ili Parked.com ili neko mjesto. Vi ste besplatno parkirati svoje domene i zaraditi novac od njih.

      Što bi moglo učiniti više smisla, IMHO je da outsource ovaj zadatak i imaju informativne blogove izgrađen na domenama te ih međusobno, oni su 10 godina.

      Ne znajući CPK ili prometne informacije za brojeve vašem niša čini teško pomoći, ali stranica sa AdSense stoji kako bi vam nešto novca ako ima informacije da su ljudi u toj niši tražite.

      Oni će također prodati za više novca sa stranice na njih u ovom trenutku u vremenu. Opet to je moje mišljenje.


      Ken Stein je odgovorio:

      Rebecca:

      Hvala na poruci. Zadnji put kad sam pokušao ukazati domene na mjestu gdje sam mogao "Park i dobit" tvrtka nije ni odgovoriti na moju e-pošte. Pokušala sam ići preko Googlea i upravo prestao svoj parking program. Sada sam u potrazi na najboljim mogućnosti nastaviti. I kasnije ovaj vikend, ja ću uzeti vremena da malo bolje pogledate na vaše web stranice.

      Tu je oko $ 8 milijardi dolara u opremu diljem svijeta prodano prije 3 godine.

      Sam bio izvjedljiv što su vaše misli o imena domena koje su se sastojale od 2 riječi i da je posljednje slovo prve riječi je isti kao i prvo slovo druge riječi. Ako čista naziv domene nije dostupan, što je pad na jedno slovo u sredini domene.

      Lane je odgovorio:

      Dopustite mi da obrazovani ubosti na to. There are many factors involved in this.

      If it's a non competitive niche, maybe like a local one, keywords can dominate immediately and I mean as soon as the site is indexed.

      If it's a very competitive niche than domain age will probably win out initially but then as time passes having keywords, especially exact match keywords, in the domain will win out.

      Since you can't change how long your competitors have had their domains you may as well get an exact match .com, .net or .org as that is eventually likely to pay off.

      May be worth buying one that is aged for quicker profits and then have another site on a domain with exact match keywords that will pay off a bit later.

      Of course backlinks are very important, but those being equal, long-term, exact match keywords in the top level domains (.com, .org. & .net) are likely to work out best for you at least that is what is working now in the search engines. As we know that can change though but you have to go with what is working.

    31. Good post! Interesting to hear that your findings reflect the track I've been on for 2 years. However, for what it's worth… personally, I feel that Search Engine's such as Google have an end goal of pleasing their customer ie the searcher. Therefore, I feel this may prove to be a shortlived opportunity as the likes of Google will surely catch on to potential 'domain abuse'.

      EG If a site called 'marketsamurai.com' has far better SEO content & link backs than say 'seotipsandtricks.com', then surely Google's end goal will be to put the better site (marketsamurai) in front of the searcher.

      If Google keeps it's searcher happy, then Google makes more money.
      Hope I've helped. Thought's on this anyone? Tweet me: http://twitter.com/sBusinessHelper

    32. Also, I was interested to know whether purchasing domain names purely for resell is illegal? especially if another legit firm already owns & trades with a similar domain name?

      I experienced this with a Client already. He made accessories for phones, focussing on Nokia ones. Nokia pursued him legally as his domain name inluded the word Nokia (he showed me the agressive legal letter from Nokia).

      On
      Carl replied:

      You never go for domains that have brand names in it. eg. Nokia, Coke, McDonalds etc they need to keep it generic. eg. mobileaccessories.com or whatever and as Kenny suggests make sense as well as get some good traffic to it.
      :)

    33. An exact match domain name (.net) has worked for me on one of my sites tho with all this personalization of search results its hard to be certain. Would be interesting to see if the .com owner could beat it but i guess that there are so many other variables involved that a direct comparison would be difficult.

      BTW whats involved in the process of offering your domain name out for rent?

      Am looking forward to the anwer to one of the posts above on the value of keywords being added as subdomains to non keyword domain name.

      Anyone with experience in this?

    35. Excellent overview of major points related to domain keyword debates. Kenny's points reinforce what I've personally found to be true. Related specifically to the prefix / suffix debate, I have some experience with both and find that I've had better results with suffixes. I now go suffix only if the exact match keyword is not available. Look forward to more videos from Kenny!

      This was a great video! But it still didn't tell me much that I didn't know.

      I was hoping to get some ideas on whether you should look for key-word.com or mykeyword.com first. What's better, a dash or a prefix/suffix? What's better, going with .net/.org, or looking for a domain with a dash or prefix/suffix.

      I mean, you DESCRIBED all the different routes we can go to, but you didn't tell us which one we should choose if the main one isn't available.

      As always, a simple “general consensus” or “personal experience” answer will be much appreciated.

      After watching both videos, I think I have a better understanding than ever before…

      But the problem – as understanding increases, so does the complexity of the questions…

      So if:

      NET is good, ORG is better, COM is best…and
      Suffix trumps Prefix (mostly)…and
      Keyword Density is an equal factor in ranking.

      Then if you had to choose from the following, which of these would be the “more better” choice:

      keyword.net

      buykeyword.org

      keywordshop.com

      (I'm not bringing hyphens into this question – another time, another place)

    38. Hello Kenny Goodman & Brent for the powerful tips around keywords in domain names.

      I'm still have a question about suffixes like +s or +es.

      What do you think about this ones?

      Srdačan pozdrav,
      Vitaly

      On
      Kenny Goodman replied:

      If you cannot get the exact match then I would say +s is usually the next best thing because it is usually the next biggest or THE biggest keyword anyway. The +s in a lot of cases gets more searches but depends on the keyword.

      Vitaly Makarkin replied:

      Sjajno! I did same for my first (I hope right choose) for the 30dc niche.

      Some month ago (before I chose this domain name), I read http://googleblog.blogspot.com/2010/01/helping-computers-understand-language.html

      “Historically, we have bolded synonyms such as stemming variants — like the word “picture” for a search with the word “pictures.”"

      Does it sound like domain with +s or +es can outrank the domain in “single” meanings? Of course with a same SEO promotion tactics.

    39. Hvala. You've answered my question about .com,.net,.org,…
      on the video.

    40. Two great videos, pretty much confirmed my thoughts on the matter. I wonder if you have any general views or information on the usage on subdomains when creating networks of sites?

      ie primarykeyword.secondarykeyword.com

      vs

      secondarykeyword.primarykeyword.com

      vs

      primarykeyword.branding.com

    41. Ironically, This subject has been on my mind lately. These videos are very helpful to me and I am sure to others. I like to take the opportunity to once again thank Marker Samurai for the video updates and are much appreciated.

    42. 42

      help with 2 ?s. Per Kenny's video, is it okay to have a dash in the domain. ie. http://www.hire-car.com instead of http://www.hirecar.com .

      Also, if I found a 10 year old domain, that had basically no links and had been asleep, then blogged on it for 6 months, would it be a lot better than if I used a newly registered domain?

      Any help with these 2 ?s would be great, or sites to go to.

      Hvala!

      David,

      Brent wrote on domain age yesterday so you might want to read about that. :)

    43. Bok,

      Thank you guys for this training – it certainly answered some of my questions.

      Can't wait to hear what Kenny has to say about aged domains – I've been reading up on this topic for a while now – especially buying aged domains with high PR. The only problem is that the service that helps you to find these high PR aged domains is rather expensive to use. I hope he will come up with a better idea or source to use for this.

      Can't wait!

      Oh, I would also like to hear your opinion on the question asked by BeddingBedspreads ie In your experience is the keyword in the domain name, more or less important as the domain age?

      do look at Kenny Goodman blog ;very interesting

    45. I had the idea of combining two or more niche keyword phrases in one domain name to save the effort promoting and traffic increase.

      For example, if one niche keyword phrase is “juicy oranges” and another “fresh oranges”, i thought to combine them in domain “freshjuicyoranges.com” to get the traffic for both phrases.

      From the last video I understood that its not as brilliant idea as I initially thought, though this very case wasn't really discussed.

      Would you guys give your opinion about the viability of such trick please?

      And thanks a ton for your amazing soft and support!:)

      I'm also interested in thoughts on the use of subdomains.

    47. I found this very informative but still wondering which is better (a) or (b)
      (a) http://www.exactkeyphrase.za.net
      (b) http://www.resemblingphrase.com ???
      From what I understand, you are saying (b)

    48. This is good information. It really looks like Google is putting more emphasis on the domain name. What to do after .com is taken has been a burning question for me. Hvala!

    49. Great stuff as always….

    50. Thanks for this great refresher on the importance of domain names.

    51. Great post guys – lots of good info here…

    52. Hi, I tend to avoid hyphens wherever I can and I'd be very surprised if double (triple!) hyphens won't be downgraded pretty quick by Google as being 'get rich quick/spammy' sites :-) .

      I heartily recommend the free http://www.bustaname.com site for finding keyword rich domains (I have no connection with it, just find it very useful) – it allows you to add keywords, have 'hyphenated' domains or not, choose your extensions and also choose how many keywords you want in the mix.

      A flute playing teacher and composer ( and client of mine, looking to sell his work online) was recently 'gobsmacked' to find http://www.FlutePlay.com available by using this tool and asked me whether he should buy it – what do you think I said in reply? :-)

      There're still good names out there! Think outside the box and use a tool like Market Samurai :-D

    53. Thanks for the very in depth analysis, i always thought that a good domain name would have some bearing on ranking but now all is a lot clearer.

    54. 54

      Thanks for the very well informed video!
      Do you have any information on purchasing banned Domain names by Google?

      Should that be taking into consideration?

    55. Hvala za ovo. Hearing it from kenny adds extra weight to the impact. From my observation google just ignores the hypens so any number is ok but BUT try telling an audience that your url is something-something-something-something.com; it doesent work they cant remember it. But if that is a direct match for a keyword phrase that you want seo traffic for and you don't care about BRANDING then a direct match hypenated will out weigh anything with a prefix or suffix. (all else bing considered).

      By the way The videos are Most Excellent. Straight to the point not a wasted word and at 10min for the longest nice and short and viewable. Try watching a howie schwartz video some time wafflw waffle info waffle waffle info 30 minutes later the audience have left the room.

      Keep up the good work guts Market Samurai is the best investmet I have ever made. EVER.

    56. Thanks for the valuable info.

    57. Great videos. Hvala za to. I know he mentioned using dashes and using prefixes and suffixes, but which one do is better?

      If .com, .org, and .net are taken for exact match what is the next best?
      Is it better to go for:
      1) .info/.biz,.us etc
      2) Use a domain name with dashes with a .com, org, .net
      3) Use a prefix/Suffix with a .com, .org, .net

      Which of those three are better?

      Also he mentioned keyword density. With his explanation it's the percentage of the match, so wouldn't it be best to only us one letter or number to add to the keyword? Such as adding/subtracting the 's' or adding a number?

      Thanks, I appreciate and enjoyed the videos!

    58. does the order of the key word matter eg, I am selling track shoes and I want the domain runfast.com which is not available but fastrun.com is available. They obviously MEAN different things, but how would google look at that ?

      Jason Muir replied:

      Hi Maggie,
      Have you considered another Domain name?…

      Broad match search for 'Run Fast' = 165,000 searches/month.

      I think this is why you want the term 'Run Fast'….

      Remember, Kenny mentioned Broad match as 'Keyword' + 'a different word' + 'Keyword'.com (or .org, .etc..)

      When you do an exact match on 'Run Fast', it is searched only 2400 times per month. However, 'How to Run Fast' is searched nearly twice this amount-4400 times per month.

      So I think 'How To Run Fast' may be worth considering? That domain name actually indicates that you have the answers for their slow running problem as well!

      howtorunfast.com is taken, but howtorunfast.org & .net are still available.

      Hope this helps Maggie…Jason.

      Michael Steinberg replied:

      This information was timely believe it or not. Very good video's…right to the point. As Kenny pointed out, some of it is debatable.

      Here is what I'd like to know. When you are doing CPA offers, you most times have to use a trademark name, in your main domain name. I'm not sure whether it is legal to use it by just adding a – hyphen or prefix, or suffix. But when you add say a suffix for instance on the end, shouldn't you be concerned about how much traffic that modified keyword is generating? Some that I have seen, and tried to use, did not have much. Isn't your main domain keyword supposed to drive traffic when you type it into Google?

      Puno hvala.

      Drew.

    62. Great videos and information. One thing not mentioned is that Google does not recognize the hyphen in an URL, but will treat it as a space, which is good for the keyword, but not for searches remembering the exact spelling of a site name…most searchers will not remember to type in the hyphen when searching, but will just type in the words without the hyphen and therefore many times be sent to one of your competitors who has a URL without the hyphen.

      If off-page SEO is done enough and correctly, then your page with a hyphenated URL will get some visitors because they are clicking on the link(with the hyphen), and not having to remember to type it in with a hyphen.

      We all want the one word .com's, but using a 2 word keyword URL is not all that bad either. Sretno

    63. Kenny is spot on re incorporating your keywords into the domain name(s) of your site(s).

      The two domain names I use to promote my mother's book are at no. 1, and no. 5, on Google, as of now.

      The websites are http://www.lifesmysteries.co.uk , and http://www.yourkeytounderstanding.com .

      To say I was gobsmacked when I searched for those two sets of keywords would be a massive understatement!

    64. thanks for the useful post! I would always avoid hyphens and extension other than .com

    65. I was just about to choose a domain name when the email popped up! Thanks Noble Samurai for providing such great follow up information and support! Your advice is gold :)

      In researching Flippa stats… .infos sell just fine.

      for my 2 cents…if ipod.info or ipod.biz exist…I would buy them

    68. Thanks, and in particular the use of prefix vs suffix. It would seem to me that the suffix better if it fits, allowing the keyword to appear first, and not a long suffix either, as the keyword density appears to be important. That's the first I had heard of or considered such. Vrlo dobro. Thanks again. I appreciate the inside, technical info, rather than just fluff.

    73. Great .info kenny & brent, i always appreciated hearing from experienced people. I never thought much about keyword density in the domain name percentage wise. Also i remember reading somewhere a discussion about using an underscore vs a hyphen what would be the difference in that case?

      Brent Hodgson replied:

      Sadly, it's not possible to buy a domain name that contains an underscore.

      A to Z. 0 to 9 and hyphen (-) character are the only characters allowed in domain names.

      When it comes to URLs as opposed to domain names (eg example.com/your_webpage where you CAN use underscores) in general, it's historically been best to use hyphens over underscores though because it's helped some of the not-quite-as-smart-as-Google search engines distinguish between words better.

      Nadam se da ovo pomaže.

    74. What about length of domain name. Obviously as it gets longer it gets harder to remember or direct type in but does it hold greater value if it has direct match?

      If you want your traffic from search engines it has far greater value. If you are using it for branding it's probably useless.

      Re: Hyphens – if it's me, I tend to avoid hyphens. I can't think of a time when there's ever *not* been a better non-hyphenated option available.

      eg if the keyword is “dog training” (as above) – there are a lot of other words that might be able to be added to “dog training” to get a great domain…

      dog training tips, best dog training, advanced dog training, natural dog training, etc

      …and no doubt some similar keywords in the market that you can target too – where you might be able to get a better quality domain for a similar (potentially not quite as high-traffic) keyword…

      dog obedience training, puppy training courses, etc

      A lot does depend on your keyword and traffic research.

      If I found “dog training guide” had lots of searches and low competition than I wouldn't hesitate to go for dogtrainingguide.net or any of the hyphenated domains you suggest above.

      For me I prefer http://www.dog-training-guide .(com, net or org) to the other hyphenated domains as it looks better to people and is a bit easier to remember. As I mentioned I haven't had a problem with hyphenated domains (even with more than one hyphen) ranking at all.

      I guess I could be wrong here and maybe it's better to go with one hyphen but nothing has convinced me that's true yet.

      Even in Kenny's video he doesn't offer any proof and only says it's what he's heard. (I'm not challenging or putting Kenny down in any way by that comment. I appreciate the information and the work you done in making the videos for us.)

      I've also HEARD this from many other very reputable people too but they've always presented it as what they've heard or a hunch or maybe even just a recommendation to be on the safe side. No one has offered any proof of this. (I know many times with SEO what is said has a basis based on experience even though it was never really tested to get the proof.)

      I wonder if we are all worried, or maybe even getting superstitious, about Google (and the others) not liking hyphens when they really may just totally ignore them. I mean they ignore punctuation when displaying search results. (This deserves to be tested.)

      OK, I'm wrong, but only by a hair. I just did a search on 'dog training guide' and 'dog-training-guide'. All the top 10 listings are the same.

      The only difference is that 8th & 9th listings on the results page were switched.

      Also with 'dog-training-guide' Google added an 11th listing that was video results at the bottom of the page.

      Also the number of results went from 17,900,000 to 17,000,000 when I added the hyphens.

      The results were pretty much the same as to the top 10 results when I did the same two searches in quotes.

      I tried this with a few other search terms. It seems to hold true with the few I did except when Google perceives I want to buy something and then they throw in a shopping results in the 3rd or 4th spot, above the fold. That is a lesson with it's own repercussions on it's own.

      Now as Brent says, if I found that “dog training tips”, “best dog training”, “advanced dog training”, “natural dog training” had as good or close to the traffic to competition ratio (high search volume – low competition) as “dog training guide” and the http://www.exactkeyword.com of one of those was available I'd certainly go with that too. And as he says I think you are quite likely to find another one that is as good or even better when you take into consideration his suggestion about finding similar keywords in the market maybe like puppy training.

      All that having been said if I thought the volume to competition ratio was best on “dog training guide” I still wouldn't hesitate to go with that and use even a number of hyphens.

      The more I think about this though this conversation from one angle is a bit idiotic because the real power of this whole technique is to and build them out and not worry about it.

      You'll without doubt make 5 times as much money with 5 domains as you will with one, of course that will be relative to the traffic volume to competition ratio of each domain. Obviously you must choose wisely.

      Yes, those rules are highly utilized by top performing affiliates of our network.
      What I would be interested to hear your take on is words versus numeric symbols in the domain name (if the added word doesn't create optimized phrase but makes the domain too long).
      Na primjer:
      let's say GetLaid.com is taken :-)
      so, instead of registering GetLaidAnyTime.com (long) it can be getlaid101.com or GetLaid1st.com LOL

      Google (specifically) has become very good at detecting English words in URLs. Other search engines, and other languages, I'm not so sure about – but certainly Google is very clever when it comes to knowing what words you have in your domain.

      Having said that – sometimes there's a very good branding reason for hyphenating your domain name…

      His country specific domain advise was ” they can be quite good ”

      Wow how amazingly insightful.

      There are so many elements to this single thread about country specific domains that you just whitewashed over including the fact that owning a country specific domain will lock you into a country registry, you don't want a .com.au if you have aspirations of growing outside your box.

      You will struggle to rank a .co.nz domain in Australia or a .co.uk in the USA but you will get a huge leg up in that country !

      This is a domaineer doing nothing more than promoting .coms – I love .coms they are by far away the best domain extension for dozens of reasons but the idea of most people buying a 100% keyword match to a good volume keyword/s is LONG gone, hence the interest in so what do next ?

      I would rather a 100% keyword matched alternative than a 4 broad match .com every day of the week.

      I wanted add something to my comment, I realized if I am going to slam this content I need to finish my remarks and provide value myself.

      If you are looking to create a business in only one country and NEVER NEVER plan to expand that business outside of the one country you should always choose a country specific domain.

      With all else being equal a .com.au will outrank a .com because of the bias that Google gives country specific domains. Just make sure you understand that you are painting a box that you can never breakout of the bias runs the other way if your talking about getting a country specfic domain to show up in another country.

      Both solutions have merit it is up to you to choose the right scenario for you.

      That said, this post all started with Market Samurai talking about the bias of exact match domains which I completely agree with the thread has transformed in phrase match domain names and even broad match these are not the same and dont have the bias first commented on by Market Samurai.

      It might be worth considering that there is only so much scope of what to cover in a few short videos. As far as I can tell, no one is claiming that these videos are covering every angle, but rather beginning to reveal some of the opportunities (for those who weren't previously aware they existed) and considerations you might want to take into account when choosing domain names.

      Kenny makes the point that if your niche is country specific ccTLDs are a great option – there are considerations with SEO, brand-ability, trademarks etc.

      The whole 'domain issue' is a potential can of worms, because there are so many considerations. For Kenny (or Brent) to bust that open with out consideration for the beginner (many users of market Samurai would be considered beginners) would be foolish and would only generate overwhelm and confusion, not to mention more unhelpful comments like your original one.

      Clearly there is a bigger picture here and pieces of the puzzle are being revealed in bite sizes to make them digestible. You might not have learned anything (yet) but that doesn't make this “terrible” content – just read the vast majority of the comments.

      You clearly have some knowledge/experience in this area, but there's a lot of people that don't and maybe, just maybe they are the target audience here… just saying.

      Victor – you are SO SO SO right with what you say about Country Specific domain names.

      If someone is looking to target a specific country, it will give them a ranking boost… But it will limit their ability to rank in other countries.

      (If people are reading these comments, and want some more advanced content, have a look at what Victor says about ccTLDs)

      Sadly, Donal's also got a point – Country-Specific SEO and Domain Names could be a whole second series of blog posts and videos by itself.

      Even though Kenny touched on it briefly by saying that he would only consider ccTLDs if someone's business is only limited to a single country, I don't think any 10-minute video is really going to do that topic justice. And before we can get to those sort of advanced topics, we need to cover the basics to make sure everyone's up to speed on the fundamentals of domain name SEO.

      Criticism taken on board though – and maybe we can get Kenny to agree to cover this topic for us in another set of videos.

      Anyway – again – if people are reading through the comments, make sure you take a look at what Victor says about .com.au's (etc).

      Victor – in the mean-time, (until we have some more advanced content on country-specific domain optimization,) do you want to help bring people up to speed, and help answer any questions people have around this here?

      Victor replied:

      Sure thank you for the opportunity to add something to the conversation.

      I am happy to write a more detailed post on the subject if you like but in the short term this is a slightly expanded view on Country Specific Domains and SEO biasing.

      1, Google maintains a lot of different data centers around the world ( best estimation is more than 50 ) as such the SERP results are different in every country and often they are even different from different locations in the same country ( particularly the US where they have at least 20 separate data centers.

      So SERP results are different from Australia to the USA and from the UK to NZ – this is not only true for google.com.au but also if you are using google.com and are located in Australia.

      2, As Google's objective is to provide the best most relevant search results to its users it places significant bias weighting on a local domain in a local data centre after all if I am in Australia there is a good probability I want to see results biased to that country.

      You can also increase local bias by having a local address of registration on your domain, ie if you own a .com but your registered address is Australia you get pushed in the Australian data centre. This might not seem like a big deal but if you live in Thailand like I do and make my living in the US data centres it matters a lot, I don't care about local data centre and don't want to be biased there so I need to correct that bias in other ways.

      A third bias is felt by including a local address in contact details in the content of your website however the greatest bias is to have a local country extension.

      A great working example of this is the original thread that starting this conversation, try searching for “credit cards” at google.com.au and you will see all the heavy weight com's are gone and they are replaced by predominately .co.au's that have no where near the SEO Authority but they are biased to appear in the SERP's anyway.

      BTW the advanced search functionality button on the right hand side of the google.com search box allows you to explore how the SERP's change from one country data center to another.

      So the basic rule is if you only ever intend to operate in your local market buy the local extension they will beat a global generic domain hands down but be warned getting a local extension to play in an alternative data centre is a loosing battle so choose wisely with an eye on the future.

      PS as an aside a lot is made of duplicate content, duplicate content is “per data center” so you can have basically totally duplicate content on several sites in several data centres getting the local bias in each and not be penalized.

      A good example of this are Bruce Clay Sites ( no I am not connected in anyway its just an observation ) they have identical content on dozens of country specific domains designed to leverage exactly this phenomenon ie get a leg up the local SERP's

      Since we are talking about US and Australia check out http://www.bruceclay.com/ and http://www.bruceclay.com.au/ they are identical but separate sites, they have the same for at least 6 countries and they are not duplicate content.

      Its a lot of work and definitely not for beginners but its an interesting observation of the country specific bias being used in the real world.

      My own guess is that domain squatters will gradually go away. By now most of the “names” have been taken. Besides which if trademarked, names go to the trademark holder. Moral, if in doubt, trademark your name.

I also liked the fact that if we are selling into a local market to have the .au, .uk appended to the domain. I have noticed that there are a number of domains now having the suffix .tv attached to the domain keyword. Where does this rank in order of preference?

      - Kopirajte ih u tekst doc i ukloniti mjesta
      - Sve ključne riječi kopirati i zalijepiti u jedan skupni domene pretraživanje objekta (kao što su http://godaddy.com/domains/searchbulk.aspx~~pobj) zatim kliknite na odgovarajućim nastavcima.

      Victor je odgovorio:

      Žao mi je što toliko toga za reći na ovu temu, ali to je jako važno subjekt i tako pogrešno da je ovo velika prilika da se jasno mnoge od mitova okolnim ovu temu.

      Google ima dnevni red, dnevni red koji je osigurati svojim korisnicima najbolje moguće iskustvo pretraživanja.

      To je razlog zašto je tamo gdje je i danas, svako tijelo zna da oni nisu izmislili pretraživanje oni samo napravio to rade bolje. Sjećam se kad su pokrenuli razlog su zarobljeni um udjela je zato SERP-a su predstavili gdje je daleko više od bilo kojeg konkurenta vjerodostojni u to vrijeme.

      Bio je to njihov "kvalifikacija proces" koji je napravio njihov SERP je vjerodostojan i tijekom posljednjih 10 godina su radili za kontinuirano poboljšanje taj proces tražeći poboljšati standard svakog SERP se predstaviti.

      Svaki faktor koji ide u tom procesu "kvalifikacije" treba skalabilne više od milijuni i milijuni stranica.

      Svaki faktor koji ide u tom procesu "kvalifikacije" matematički izvodi, to je jedini način da se može skalirati na način da ne.

      Svaki faktor koji znamo da se činjenično o SEO je u stanju objasniti jasno i logično -

      npr.

      Na najjednostavniji razini količina i kvaliteta povratne veze utječe na site ima svoj autoritet u kvalifikacijskom procesu.

      ili domene koji je bio pod redovitom razvoja tijekom razdoblja od nekoliko godina dobiva pristranost glede novog svježe iskovane stranice.

      ili vezano uz državu korištenja domene je dano pristranost preko domene iz neke druge zemlje u lokalnom datacentre.

      ili 100% točno podudaranje između korisnika i pretraživanja domene URL je dobar logički pokazatelj "namjeri" jednog domena sadržaja

      Svi ovi faktori čine savršen logički i matematički smisla.

      Međutim, ideja da. Com ili. Net ili org. Daje prednost samo "jer je njegov. Com" ima ili nema logike osnove u programiranju i nema kvalifikacijske čimbenici koji bi eventualno Google vrijednost koja se "zaraditi" od strane zahvaljujući jednom od tih podru nad drugom.

      Prihvaćam da su neki ljudi vidjeli bolje ili lošije rezultate od različitih svjetskih TLD-a, ali razlog nije u TLD sam da je manje očito logika.

      You guys are programmers like me, I know you understand all the biases mentioned above and why they exist as qualifiers, there are so many factors that could serve as potential qualifiers that have more logic than this argument, heck how long the domain was registered for has more merit in this discussion than if it was a .net or .org.

      Register for 1 year and you look like your a fly by night “red flag possible spammer” but 5 years is a commitment – forget that – that is not my point just that thinking that you get advantage between three possible extensions at the point of registration is wishful thinking.

      By all means buy a .com because it will increase in value quicker than any other extension or there is a larger resale market or for the type in traffic just don't buy it because other TLD's are penalised or rewarded by Google somehow just because they are not .com's or .net's or .org's

      When it comes to global generic domains it is what comes before the dot that biases SEO and for very logical practial reasons, when the domain name matches the users search string perfectly Googles logic says maybe that domain needs to go into the short list for further qualification and consideration.

    93. Kenny, your feedback would be great on the following -

      What would be your order of preference on:

      1) Keywords in domain (which is a given)
      2) Domain age (if your purchasing a domain from someone)
      3) Prefixes & Suffixes
      4) TLD .org/.net.info/.mobi/.me etc
      5) Purchasing an expired/existing domain over a new one

      and any other items that are appropriate.

      Can I suggest that if you are going to explore this subject that you consider a visual matrix that shows the many possible combination of factors and how they relate to each other and trade off against each other in the experts opinion over selecting a domain for the primary purpose of SEO advantage.

      There are so many factors that relate to biases on a domain they all need to be considered.and weighed and they influence each other.

      Factors in the visual matrix might include

      Keyword exact match, phrase match and broad match, age, all the various Global TLD's, Country LD's, the cost of buying a established .com – how much content and backlink building could you outsource for steps of $500, $1000, $5000 etc etc how does this weigh against a good generic .com – which would you rather own ? A 100% keyword matched .com or a .org with $5000 of backlinks built out ?

      These are the question we are looking for anyone that is a Market samurai customer has probably been doing this for at least a little while and is past “a .com is best” “then a .net” “or maybe .org” – great advise 10 years ago, can we have some real world advise for real world sites.

    97. Wow great stuff. All these are questions on my mind but I never bothered asking. So thank you – all those who asked!!

    98. Maybe a good subject to intensify in a further post would the part with the international domain names. I find it important that a German version of a website should have an international domain name like at, de, or ch for that matter. It is far more effective to recreate the whole website on a different server with an appropriate country relevant domain name, than to have a multi-lingual website. The whole internet marketing gets easier because you can link each article to each other using text links. This will primarily cost a bit more because you make and pay for two sites instead of one but it will ultimately pay off over time.

    99. great stuff guys. just started the 30DC and cant wait!

      Thanks Kenny. All Great advice.

      I have two questions that I would appreciate you giving an opinion on:-

      1. If a really good keyword “.com” name is found and it is thought prudent to buy the same “.org” and “.net” names to protect it should these last two be “parked” or “forwarded” to the website built using the “.com” name.

      The reason I ask is that if the last two are “forwarded”, would Google view this as duplicate content and penalise the “.com” site?

      2. All things being equal, and for SEO purposes, is it better to build a site using WordPress or a straightforward HTML site using say Dreamweaver or XSite Pro. I'm not thinking of a blog as such – just a single page salesletter type site which I believe can also be achieved using WordPress.

      Brent Hodgson replied:

      Hey Harry – I hope you don't mind me jumping in here.

      Re: #1 – Absolutely!

      If you're sitting on a great keyword dot com, grab the .org and .net too. (I think Kenny touched on this briefly at the end of one of the videos. I think I also recommended it at the bottom of one of the last blog posts as one of 4 action items.)

      Once I have them, I forward them to my main .com.

      I don't get much SEO benefit, and there's no risks of duplicate content because people are still landing on the .com (you're not duplicating the site on the .org and .net)

      Re: #2 – I like Wordpress because it's quick and easy, but if any platform gets the fundamentals of SEO right (title tags, meta tags, search engine visible links, page slugs, etc) then it shouldn't really matter what platform you use.

      Wordpress has a couple of side-benefits for SEO – but these mainly relate to blogging rather than sales pages.

      Just one quick note – if you're putting up a one page website, check out Google's webmaster guidelines. They generally frown on very thin sites.

      Your advice is much appreciated and as a result I am now going to take action as per your advice.

      The point about the “thin” site approach is particularly welcome and as a result of what you say I am going to build a WordPress blog around the great keyword I found using Market Samurai.

      Boy, am I glad I found Market Samurai. It's by far the best online purchase I have ever made out of what probably amounts to a few thousand Pounds now over the past few years. I live in Scotland UK and something else I would like to say is that it's very refreshing to find a product that does what it says on the tin rather than the Yankee Doodle Dandy grossly over-hyped stuff from across the Atlantic.

      PS
      The video tutorials included within the product from Anthony and yourself are very enlightening and highly educational. By viewing them all (some two or three times) I feel I have expanded my knowledge of keywords greatly. AND I've discovered some of the other great tools like the website moneytisation module that I didn't even expect to get with a keyword tool.

      Bok,

      Brent, I have a question about your replies (in Comments #101 and #96). Can't I put up a 1 page site (using my own WP or HTML, SEOing the meta tags, etc.,) including a few sentences of relevant, unique content on the page, and put Adsense ads on it to generate $?

      What I am describing here is “parking” my domain myself, instead of parking it at a parking company or with Google Adsense for Domains. Then I would get a higher % of the income.

      Why would Google frown at that?

      Good question, Fran.

      There are two issues here..

      The first is the minimum requirements of the content on your site that you need to meet before Google Adsense will allow you to display ads.

      The second is ranking well, and getting traffic to your site.

      In Google Adsense's guidelines, there's a requirement that you … “Create a useful, information-rich site and write pages that clearly and accurately describe your content.” So a single page Parking site is unlikely to meet these guidelines.

      The second issue – getting rankings – that's a similar issue. In the same way that Google will reject sites from Adsense that do not provide a lot of value to the end user (ie lots of rich content), they will do whatever they can to avoid ranking sites that do not have lots of rich content.

      So despite having a great domain name, you still need the fundamentals of SEO (links, content, etc) to get rankings. All a good domain name does is “magnify” your results.

      Brent

    102. What is the concensus on registering multiple domains for one website and parking them? Does the main domain name that the hosting was set up under gain the most value? And how much value do the other parked domain names really add to a website? Surely Google would figure out that somebody's collecing domains and therefore doesn't value them as much?

    103. Great that what I have just watched here confirms my own thoughts and knowledge about this topic:)

    104. Very good information, Kenny
      I have a question regarding the suffixes.
      It's a good decision to add a suffix letter,
      if the keyword.com is already taken?
      Example. http://www.exactkeywordX.com?

    105. It would be interesting to see some controlled tests measuring what extension is better for SEO. In the end it doesn't matter what the SEO community thinks will rank well, only what actually ranks well.

      (On the other hand if you aim to sell the domain it may be a lot more important what the buyer think will rank than what actually ranks :)

      Quick question:

      Lets say I do own domain name washers.com but I do not rank well for buywashers.com

      After watching this video it makes sense to register buywashers.com

      Now…

      1) Should I do a 301 redirect on buywashers.com to washers.com

      ili

      2) Should I add some content to buywashers.com optimized with that keyword and send traffic to washers.com

      Probably #2 but would like to know your point of view.

      Hvala!

      What about the length of time you register your domains for? Does that play a role as well? I have *heard* that registering your domains for a minimum of 2 years tells Google that you are in it to stay and is not a spam site, and a 1 year renewal penalizes you.

      Either way I have no idea whether its fact or fiction so what is your opinion and experience with this?

    108. Thanks for the video. Would using a number be better than using a suffix. ie dogtrainingnow or dogtraining1 ?

    109. Thanks for the great information. This will help in securing a domain name for maximum search engine optimization.

    110. Nice easy to understand videos Kenny. Hvala.

      I think the statistics are harder.

      In non competitive niches, the low hanging fruit goes to keyword rich domain names. I've seen all sorts of phrase match with modifiers for affiliate offers, rank well and constantly in the top 10.

      I also see many niches where CONTENT ranks above a keyword rich domain which does not have content.

      I also personally think that BRAND and easy memorable domains are more important to “people” who are the ones who “spend”, not Google.

      So I think your money page is sensible and your keyword traffic sniffers could be as keyword rich as you can get, without looking spammy.

      But it certainly seems that the early bird gets the worm.
      The EXACT match domain owner with great content, should win the prime position. Assuming of course backlinks and so on…

      I'm curious, has anyone seen a BAD SPELLING doman with LONG TERM ranking?

      Nice one colonel sanders ;-)

      Agreed that it's important to make sure you have the fundamentals (good content, links, etc). As I mentioned in a comment above, a good domain name will magnify these things – but it doesn't replace the need for content and links.

      “I'm curious, has anyone seen a BAD SPELLING doman with LONG TERM ranking?”

      Ne.

      I used to have a domain that targeted a misspelling [bussiness instead of business] – but Google has closed most of those loopholes a long time ago – and I would have been better off focussing on a long term strategy for delivering value rather than trying to exploit an arbitrage opportunity.

      Hi, I have a website with a 3 word keyword that I'm targeting. I wasn't able to get .com, .org or .net. so I added the google stop word 'the' as a prefix. How much do you think that that will affect me? In Market Samurai it is huge difference when analyzing them but in the real world will it really make a difference as I will still have an 83% keyword rich domain name.Does google even consider the 'stop word' because if not than I will have a 100% keyword rich domain.

      Thanks… Brad

    112. This blog post confirms that what I'm doing is partially correct :)

      Hvala!

    113. Great videos! I have a .net domain that I used in the 30dc and recently noticed a .org using the exact same keywords creeping into my niche so it is intersting to hear Kenny's opinion on this topic : )

    114. Thank you guys for this video.
      It explains very well the process for choosing an appropiate domain name for SEO.
      I have just recommended the video on my site on web search engine optimization :)

      These videos are great and extremely informative. I've been developing WP sites after taking the Google sniper course. All of the sites are exact match domains. I've made a practice out of scooping up the .org & .net if both are available and also the singular and plural variations if they are as well. Of course, this is worth doing if the search volume/competition factors are in line.

      Given the stiff competition for exact match domains, I've been on a buying spree after having done the necessary niche homework. I've purchased over 140 domains and feel good that I have now a base of virtual assets in niches that are worthy of development. So, I now switched gears into site development mode. I have about 8 niches that I've developed a site for out of the 140.

      Herein lies my problem. I understand the strategy of eventually developing all of the domain variations for a niche, but can't afford to do that right now. I've only been developing one of the sites even though I might have secured 1-4 domains for a given niche. It's a long term goal to develop them all. However, I'm not looking forward to the re-registration annual bill for these 140+ domains.

      I'd like to understand how I can get these undeveloped domains to at least pay for their own renewal fees in the interum. I've heard that parking them at Sedo, etc doesn't even generate enough adsense money to pay for themselves. Does it cost money to park a site at one of these services?

      Advice Appreciated

      George

    116. Hi my question is about the keywords included in the domains.
      For example buysomething.com, net,org etc are tooken, how would be best for the search engines: somethingbuy.com or something-buy.com

      Thank you for the great article Kenny.

      Thank you- the videos are better than any of the books i have read on the subject!

      Question: In terms of traffic when considering domain names should you be looking at the number of exact matches not phrase or broad of the keyword when doing your research? I get confused on permutations for example if cheapboats.com is not available would boatscheap.com be a good domain?

      Appreciate your thoughts

    118. Not wanting necessarily to rain on everyone's parade but there is something else to consider here ( and yes,I'm playing Devil's Advocate!)

      How about the day comes when Google decides that Key Phrases in content and Meta Titles are more important than KWP Search terms in the Domain Name ( which we are all, for the most part, focusing on here).

      ie Google decides that 'buybluewidgetsonline.com' should not necessarily get 'bonus' points for having the search term in the domain url?

      Google, after all, continually state that they want to present their searchers with the most relevant content right? Just because a KWP is in the domain name doesn't necessarily mean the content is relevant to the search.

      Let's face it every IM person is trying to find Keyword rich domain names!

      Think of all those Squidoo lenses and Wordpress.com sites etc. etc all fighting to get the KWP in the domain name to promote that latest IM offering. How hard ( or easy) would it be for Google to simply take that out of their ranking equation?

      See what I'm saying here?

      We've all got a bit complacent on this particular SEO factor I think and our SEO bubbles could be burst at any time if that's all we focus on.

      Hmmm… How many of us would get seriously 'F%@^£d' should that ever happen ( and don't tell it me it might not!)

      Sorry to bring some 'doom and gloom' to this excellent thread but it had to be said :-)

    119. Hi Kenny, great information on here, thanks for sharing, I learned a lot from your videos about domains, keywords etc so thanks again. Trish

    120. That's a good point Clive.

      It would be foolish to only look at the domain name when optimizing.
      I myself use the domain name, title, description and header tags to get my kws in as much as possible.
      It's not always possible but every bit helps.

    121. On the topic of using hyphens, I have two sites that were launched about a month apart from each other (different micro niches but same niche). The one domain that has 2 hyphens in the name got a PR 3 within 2 months whereas the domain with 1 hyphen still does not have a PR. I know that's not the only factor but it appears using more than 1 hyphen didn't hurt me.

      Hi guys,

      With regard to suffixes to the exact domain name, what effect would a number at the end have to it's ranking/indexing chances in that niche?

      Would love to know.

      Keep up the good work

      Paul H

    123. I've done a few searches: race cars, horse racing, and more. The domain name seems to beat out the big names almost always. (race cars beats Nascar).

    124. Interesting stuff! Keep the info Coming

    125. If your keyword is “blue paisley tie”, which domain is better: http://bluepaisley-tie.com or http://bluepaisleytieshop.com

    126. Hi guys,
      Wow, great videos and I think I have learned almost as much from the follow up comments as the videos. Please keep it coming!
      First a heads up for Victor, who said(March 27th at 6:23pm)
      “These are the question we are looking for anyone that is a Market samurai customer has probably been doing this for at least a little while and is past “a .com is best” “then a .net” “or maybe .org” – great advise 10 years ago, can we have some real world advise for real world sites.”
      I guess 2 years is “a little while”, at least I think so. The problem is that there are a lot of people and sites that are not clear, or just plain wrong in the advice they give. After having spent good money on bad advice, ( I own 2 totally useless domains and 2 marginal at best domains) the 10 year old advice you refer to, will keep me from repeating the same mistakes in a new way. Thank You Market Samurai!!!
      Now my questions. My domain name only has a 44% keyword density, would adding a “/keyword” after the “.com” help my SEO efforts? Should leave off the part of the keyword that comes before the “.com” or not?
      I have recently purchased Market Samurai, and truly wish I had found it sooner!

    127. Great question from Anthony just before mine. I want to ask it in a slightly different way.

      In Market Samurai, my competitor sites get a tick in the box for the keyword being in the URL just as mine does for having in the domain. Is there value in having the keyword in the url but not the domain and should we be attempting to ensure this is the case all the time?

    128. Bok,

      veliki video! still confuse about which one is better?
      ex : dogtraining.net or dog-training.com

    129. 129

      I am looking at some domains for SEO purpose NOT branding. The .com,.org,.net are gone. In some I could get keywordphrase.biz or keywordphrase.info. Would these be a better option than say keyword-phrase.com or keywordphrasesuffix.com ?

      I'm intrigued with the idea of keyword density in domain names, as well as the belief that the SEs read from left to right.

      SO, if I want a domain name about “bicycle parts”, and I can't get bicycleparts.com, how smart an idea is it to get bicyclepartss.com? It has very high KWD and the required keyphrase is at the start of the domain name.
