    don't bother using "blog" as a keyword in your domain. Use it in your title, description, and on page content instead.

    jvfconsulting ---- as a matter of meta-tagging in the head tags on a website --- the word blog by being helpful ----- seriously --- why not include the word blog in a domain name ------ what would be the problem they are ---- I've heard many search engine optimizer's sake don't use the word blog if you're not trying to rake for the word blog ----- I am trying to rank high for the keywords Utah wellness ----------------- does that make sense

    If you are not targeting the phrase blog then there is no need to have it in your domain name. It just makes your domain name longer and harder for people to remember. The shorter the domain name the easier it is for people to remember it.

    The reality is for the domain im building is actually going to be a wellness utah wordpress blog - It is the main reason why ask the question ------ the optimization of multiple keywords and site and domain including the word blog ------ in reference to keyword domains over saturated ----------

    so the main reason for adding the word blog in the domain and not the head meta tag
