Keyword as a domain name ...?????

HI

I am planing to get some new domains to work on my personal blogs ,did you all feel that adding keywords will help me to rank well...

Suggestions are alway's welcome.......

Yeah it helps in terms of SEO, but it is worst in terms of making a brand. So I guess it depends on the project and how long term goals you have.

remember that Flickr.com ranks well in "photo sharing"

besides, how boring it would be Google.com was SearchEngine.com

branding matters.

Totally agree. The best choice is the short catchy name

My vote too for shorter and catchy name without any numbers and hyphens

keywords specific url is the best way to come in search result in short time go for that

keyword as a domain.. it is ok, from my experience, it was good but the keywords that need is more specific. eg niche "cooking". choose  "cooking for kids" or whatever.

I would go with key-phrase domains unless it was some site you were really passionate about.  In other words, if your making the site for a quick buck and quick ranking then get a key-phrase domain.  However, if you wanted some long term project like a webmaster forum then you could choose a brand-able name.

Of course, sometimes a brand-able name will also be a key-phrase name.

if you have a short name or you can abreviate your name, using your name can give your domain  the personal touch.

If you want to register new domain. Select first domain that is important and SEO friendly. Select your domain using keywords.  It helps you to boots up the traffic and visitors.

There is a new Google update called Panda update, it sort of negates the benefit of keyword in a domain name, its one of the hotest topics of discussion in the SEO world at the moment

yes I would defintetely put my keyword into the domain name. one of the first things i do what creating a site.

I think you should put the keyword there without any worry! I always do this and it helped me in ranking. I know that branding is important, but it's very hard to obtain! You can, sometimes, combine both the keyword and the branding if you know the style!

Keyword in the domain name helps for SEO and to recognize your niche...

Keywords will definitely help you rank well.

I think there are plenty of methods to do so, where as the most important methode all use is the quality content and creating backlink from from other domains. In such kind of method there are other ways where webmaster use to such kind of method on daily basic to create the best outcome.

First & Most important thing about domain name is that Domain name should be selected according to search engines priorities, so that search engines could find your website easily. Domain name also should be easy to remember and could become a brand in future. This is for your visitors.

You can use a long tail keyword.
However,please make sure it won't be too long.
Also,a Novel domain will help you to rank well.

yes, having the keyword on your domain can help your ranking in the search engine. But it is only one of the factor in the SEO so don't solely rely on it.

u can check domain name sites. you will find

A short catchy name is good but it would be great if it has a target keyword in it...

Having keyword in your domain is an added advantage which can help you rank easily for your targeted keywords. But focus on qaulity ogf the content of your blog which will make you successful in the long run.

Yeah it helps... but i would be much better if its reflects your business and brand :)

Keywords in domain names have very little importance in actual ranking calculations - that???s been the case for years now. The positive effects people see are a consequence of sites linking to the domain using the URL as anchor text - link text containing keywords is what helps the domain rank, not the actual appearance of the keyword in the domain name.

Yes, it will help you search engine rankings and if the exact keyword is in the domain, then you almost literally have to do nothing if it is a long tail keyword, however, this is not good for a couple of reasons, it probably is not going to be the name of the site that you want, and is a sign of someone not wanting to work hard on SEO.  Of course, going the easy way, but if I look at an SEO firm and the domain name is part of their keyword, and they tell you they are the best, I run for the hills. 

Yes. Its always better . Go for it

I have been struggling try to wrap my head around which is better to use ... a keyword domain name or a company domain name.

An Exact-Match Keyword Domain Name is one of the best things you can do SEO-wise.

There is no need to go with keyword name for your domain name, since Google new update puts the content on no.1 place, and all other SEO waaay back in line, so focusing on something than that seams to me like waste of time,and like someone said before here branding could be better way to go perhaps, depending on a business you are in.

Yea..it is good to choose domain with related keywords. Before buying domain, you can check keywords with Google Adwords.

Keywords in domain name used to help rank much beter for that particular keyword but with all that google changes over a past year it doesnt help as much as it was in the past. Google is focusing now more than ever before on unique contents and organic seo. Keyword in domain name is not gong to boost your rank very much but hey every little bit counts right.

Google is changing their Search engine policy. So who does too much SEO for his site will be penalized. So it is good to write unique but effective content for popularity
