    I'm going to buy a new domain name.
    It's gonna be ******bet.com
    Before there's an adjective, don't want to reveal cause i fear thiefs.
    It's about betting as you probably have noticed.

    So, shall i use "BET" or "BETS" ? Which is most SEO-friendly?
    Thanks ;)

    I would register both but use the singular one (a little depending on the other word)

    The singular would get my vote.

    I vote singular if you are using the keyword as the prefix.

    As the suffix, it really depends on the word. I like Forums better than Forum.

    As far as SEO, singular is probably better if both are used equally as search engines imply the plural. I'm not sure if it works vise-versa though.

    Good luck!
