Keyword-Rich Domain Names
By Jill Whalen - 6/27/2002
Download Qtorrent The myth of using keyword-rich domains for SEO purposes has been perpetuated for way too long, and quite frankly I'm tired of seeing it written about as if it's an all-important SEO factor.

What does it mean to egister a domain name The Internet domain name system (DNS) consists of a directory, organized hierarchically, of all the domain names and their corresponding computers registered to particular companies and persons using the Internet. When you register a domain name, it will be associated with the computer on the Internet you designate during the period that the registration is in effect. From that computer, you can create a website that will be accessible to Internet users around the world.
Cubase Torrent Perform some searches in any spidering search engine and sure, you may very well find keyword-rich domains in the top spots. But upon closer inspection, you'll see that the same keywords are also in the Title tags of those sites. Title tags *are* very important to high rankings; I daresay that they're as important as body copy. Many see the keyword-rich domain name, and assume that's what is causing the high ranking. Yet it's much more likely that the high ranking is a direct result of the Title tag and/or the body text, along with the other usual SEO suspects.

How long does a registration last Can it be renewed Web.com offers terms of one, two, five, and ten years for new domain registrations, and one, two, five, and nine years on renewals. With a longer domain term, you are less likely to risk losing your domain name to someone else. By purchasing a shorter term, you risk letting your domain name expire, mail unavailable to visitors and open for anyone else to register it. In fact, a growing number of cyber squatters are actually in the business of registering expired domain names and holding them for ransom!

Some rank highly simply because there are keywords in the hyperlinks pointing to the site. Google is especially susceptible to this phenomenon, which has been dubbed "Google Bombing" in the Web Blog world. If enough sites link to a site using the specific keyword phrase in the hyperlink, it can have a dramatic effect on rankings. David Gallagher recently interviewed me for his Business 2.0 article entitled "Top of the Heap," where he wrote about his quest to become the number-one site in Google for the phrase "David Gallagher." All he did was ask everyone who read his Web Blog to link to his site using his name in the hyperlink. Once the "Google Dance" for that month was finished, he was number one!

You can read David's article -- and my quotes -- in the July 2002 Business 2.0 print magazine.)

Bootleg Movie Download With directories such as Yahoo!, it may appear as if keywords in the domain name make a big difference to rankings. After all, the directories are not spidering the words on your pages and don't have much to go on to determine your position. But you know what? My very unscientific research shows that in actuality, keywords in the Yahoo! title are the more likely reason for top rankings. Remember, those that purchase keyword-rich domain names very often name their site the same thing as their domain name, and submit that phrase to Yahoo! as their title. For instance, a site with the domain of keyword-domains-r-us.com would probably be titled, "Keyword Domains R Us." As with the spidering engines, the words in the title are likely to be what's boosting those sites in the Yahoo! results, not the domain name.

Cloverfield Torrent Just to be sure I wasn't leading you down the wrong path, I asked Tom Wilde, General Manager of Search Services at Lycos, if domain names factored into their ranking algorithm. He told me that they are a factor in the Lycos algorithm, but since they're so open to being abused, they're a very small factor. He confirmed that the Title tag and the body text copy were given much more weight than the domain name. However, for those of you who just don't feel comfortable unless you have keywords in your domain name, Tom did tell me that using a hyphen between the keywords would be your best bet for getting them recognized as separate words.

Yahoo Messenger Invisible Hack Since I've optimized hundreds of sites without ever purchasing keyword-rich domain names (and always get high rankings), I'm sticking with my "don't worry about it" stance! Like the Meta keyword tag, domain names are definitely not something to obsess over. I recommend purchasing the domain names that work best for branding reasons. To me, YourCompany.com name makes a whole lot more sense than your-keywords-here-so-you-can-rank-high.com, no matter how you slice it!
