    Hello,

    Using Google AdWords: Keyword Tool, I see that this certain key term is popular (It has 49,500 Global Monthly Searches) and there is a .us domain for it. For SEO and SERP reasons, should I take it? Even though the .com is take and that site is developed, is it worth it?

    For example (if you don't get it): forum.com is taken and is a popular/developed site. "Forum" is a major keyword.

    Thanks.

    I do not think using keyword in your domain name will approve your SEO.

    Sure it will. Its a major key term, so I believe there is higher chance (obviously with other general SEO/SERP tricks added).

    David I'm afraid you are not right. Content is a king for the SEO.
    Visit some SEO forums and you will see.

    That's right... Just keyword in domain name will not help you for SEO rather backlinks, quality content and proper usage of tags will boost your ranking !!!!! No need to have keyword rich domain if it's not available try to get something similar to it ;)

    Like I said, I will also optimize it with general techniques to reinforce the keyword enriched domain.

    Either way, that's off topic. Could you please answer my question?
