I run a web design business on the side and I currently have the site hosted under the domain IanEberle.com, which is my name. I get some traffic from Google, but barely. I am interested in getting a better suited domain name that contains the keywords "web design". My problem is I don't know which route to go: Targeting local people or targeting a mass audience. For example: Local: MiamiWebDesign.com Masses: UltimateWebDesign.com Which method will give me better results? I did some keyword tests and lots of people search for things like "web design miami, fl", so that's why I was thinking about it in the first place. What does everyone think?
I would go big: Masses: UltimateWebDesign.com and make sure your content is optimised for miami city also.
If that's the case, do you recommend having "web design" in the domain? Example: WonderfulWebDesign.com vs. WonderfulDesign.com
Personally I would have "web design" in your domain. Maybe go for a brandable such as ________WebDesign.com and them optimize for various keywords there. Also worth mentioning, I think people that are searching for "Geographic Web Design" are maybe looking for someone local that they can deal with one on one. So maybe have 2 sites, one for a general audience and maybe you could network locally and build up a solid client base. There could be a big benefit from dealing with people locally and their word of mouth if they are satisfied with your services. Just my 2 cents.
