How many words is too many for a domain name?

Will Goog penalize a site for it being rich in keywords if it has 5 keywords in the domain name?

 

If you are optimising for those 5 keywords as a phrase, then I don't see how Google would penalise you.

 

ok sounds good!

 

2-3 keywords in a domain will do, but it depends on the theme of your site. Google favors the use of long tail keywords as a domain name.

 

there is no penalty of using long tail keyword in domain or links.

 

I generaly pick domains that are 2 or 3 words more than 3 sounds bad to customers

 

CoopersPick,

SEOMoz has recently published some research on this. Keywords in the domain are good. But shorter domains are more effective than longer domains.

 

I have 3 rather long words in my domain name and in hindsight it was probably a bad idea. Oh well, thems the breaks

 

short URL always do the trick, min. 5 and max. 6 words URL is good and ideal as per SEO requirements. Short URL are easy to remember which make it user friendly.

 

I don't think it will penalize..but 2 to 3 keywords are sufficient in domain...
