    Wow, when I was searching laptop keyboards on Google I found out that the big G values keywords exact matched domains highly.

    OK, when you search that keyword, this website laptopkeyboards<.>org comes second with a PR0 and three No PR backlinks. So all onpage SEO (16,600 pages indexed by google) can beat others with a keywords exact matched domain name?

    Anyone interested?:eek:

    keyword in domain is one of the factor in serp ranking. The site comes up because it's exact on the searches.

    Many sites dont have keyword in domain but still high rank. Don't let domain kill your brand.

    It's only valid for low competition keywords. High paying keywords don't work that way because the SEO done on those sites are extremely good.

    1 word keywords are very hard to optimize, so I prefer 2 to 4 word keywords.

    Having keywords in the domains does help a site in ranks. But I agree with what the other person said, it won't work so well with keywords with high competition.
