Hi guys, I just found some good exact match domains, but the competition is big. The global monthly searches are 100 000 and US searches are 70 000. What do you think about going into that niche? I'm very much into SEO and can try to get it to first page, but should I even try or I don't have a chance? Also I want to know your opinion about the amount of global searches per month that are the limit for even trying in that niche. Regards, genchev
is it a .com, .net or .org? I don't bother to buy other extensions. And how good are the number 1 result in SEO? If you know what you are doing than you can get it ranked 1. Everything is possible, it will only take good on page and off page SEO with good dedication. It will probably also take a long time before you get in on rank 1.
Verify those numbers with SEMrush or a secondary place of some kind. I've never been lucky enough to get such a highly searched keyword in an EMD, but I would certainly give it a shot. At minimum, buy it then sell it for 2-3 times what you paid for it.
That being said if you have an exact match domain (.com,.net,.org), and want to spend some time and have ok knowledge on the topic and your not paying a ridiculous amount on the domain, then I'd say yes, go for it! Also if you are not interested in working for it then take some time, buy it and then sell it for 2-3 times the price. In my opinoin, SEO is not overly big that is partially because I use blogger (custom domain) designed by google and as I post all posts come with a lot of basic SEO optimization. A lot of places such as wordpress.org have plugins that can make your basic posts SEO optimaized which can help
Yeah I think it might be a bit rough for a newbie but if you are dedicated, patient, and have the right links and know how it should be easy. EMD TLD 's work well too. Good luck.
realistically you should've have a problem getting in the top 3 for that search ratio. Its really not that high. I have a site that has a global of 5,000,000 and I think it took a year to get on the first page. The problem is beating the big shots up high. Take a look at the top 5 ranked and if they 3 to 5 of them are huge massively known things that are globally known such as Disney, Itunes, etc then consider it to really not be worth it. Site like that are not fair to compete against considering google probably sells them that spot. 100,000 global search is nothing to worry about though. You just have to have the patience to compete for a year.
Hi guys, thanks for the answers. The first place is taken buy wikipedia, the rest are random websites PR1-3. I think I might go for this one. I'm planning to build not that big of a website but work on off page SEO. I guess after 5-6 months I can reach top3.
I would double check those #`s like some people mentioned earlier. Ask myself, is there any other keywords that relate to this search, outside from just one keyword focus.
It's not about the number of searches, that's not your competition. Search on google for "keyphrase" with the quotation marks and that will tell you your competition level, anything below 100,000 is easy. Also try inurl:"keyphrase" which is your true competition level if you have an exact phrase match.If that's below 50,000 your exact domain name should beat them providing your onsite SEO is good.
