    Ok Say i want to rank for "web hosting companies" in a search engine. Would my rank be affected if my domain was "web7hostingcompanies.com" compared to webhostingcompanies7.com? Which would be better or would they be the same?

    Although I think both would be ok, I would go with the last one because the words are tied together. And the 7 should always be suffix.

    The second one would rank better.. and would of course be much better for phrase searches too.

    2nd one is visitor friendly and as all words are tide together so that SERP ranking will also get benefit of it.

    Who will search for web 7 hosting services> But many search for web hosting services. So i will prefer 2nd one.

    Both are same there is no difference between them if you wanna rank for "web hosting companies" keyword. Because google does not see order of words but google notice how strong your domain and title are, then it takes words from your title and domain relevant to your keyword.

    I wanna tell you new domain never help in serp's if you have keywords in domain or not. If you wanna take benefit then for this purpose your domain shud be altleast 5-6 month old with gud backlinks..........................

    Keywords in domain does not mean you wud get ranking instantly, for this purpose your domain shud be old and shud have gud backlinks according to keyword competition. So don't think if you have keywords in domain you wud get ranking easily..........
