I am putting up a site for a contracting company small business. I am trying to decide on a domain name and I have a few options with keywords in the domain name. Can you tell me which domain you think would rank higher for seo purposes only, not branding or anything else. This is not the niche, these are just example keywords: I want to rank for the keyword phrase "houston plumbers" So I have a choice between: 1. plumbershouston.com 2. houstoncustomplumbers.com One domain has the keywords in reverse order, one domain has them in the right order but with a word in between. Which do you think would get a better seo boost for exact match keywords? Thanks
Doesn't really matter IMO, as long as the keyword is in the domain you should be fine. THE EMD bonus is not as big as before.
i agree with this.. just as long as the keyword is there and your type of business reflects the domain, that's good to go!
