There is a single word keyword that is highly competitive and high CPC in adsense. The .com is taken of course. However the keyword with "and" in front of it is for sale for $280 and gets the same amount of global and local searches as the single keyword without the "and". It's a .com also. Is this 2 word keyword worth buying? Google keyword tool shows it gets the same amount of searches but that hard to believe. Any thoughts?
I think it is worth buying because .com is more valuable than .net. You can spend 270$ out of 280$ on developing back links.
I don't know really - I can't see how adding the word 'and' to a single word makes sense ... for instance 'andloans.com' ... or 'andbasketballs.com' all don't make sense and aren't good domain names. When you're checking the traffic for the keywords, make sure to use the exact search volume for your analysis.
If plus the "and" and it still take the same meaning or describe the same thing . Then i would said it worth to buy it .While think positive that with your SEO effort, you may taking advantages on both keywords .
If "and" is part of your sentence to promote your product, then of curse is good to buy the domain. ~Mike
