Text order for Domain names and SE's...

    I'm thinking of registering a few domain names with text out of a natural order.

    For instance, let's say I believe people search for:
    Seattle horse farms

    I was thinking of registering:
    HorsefarmsSeattle.com or even, if not available:
    HorseSeattleFarms.com

    Now I can see how they might be a little harder for people to remember with the text out of order, thus potentially hurting returning visitors, but wonder what your experience has been like when it comes to SE's and "domain name phrases" that are in a different order from what the user types.

    Thanks,
    Starke

    There are thousands if not millions of domain names following this trend.

    IMO, I believe that, in the long run, they will look like spam sites, if not already.

    I think that over time these will become more acceptable but right now spammers seem to like these domain names.

    yeah, I've seen them mainly with spammers.

    There is definitely some value there I believe, but, a little tougher to remember for the searcher.
