    How important is it for a brand new domain name to have keywords in it?

    Thanks in advance for any help.

    For noncompetitive keywords, it will put you quickly at or near the top of the search engine results. For competitive keywords, it will help, but don't expect miracles.

    It may help in SERPs for the keyword in the domain name but you need to make your site rank for more than one keyword if you can.

    It could quite help if you did, but you must put more keywords based on contents as well.

    It wont do much unless you put in more relevant contents on your website.

    Yes, I was just getting ready to register a new name and this was something I was thinking about heavily.

    Thank You!
