Which domain would you choose ? - GoFuckYourself.com

VIXEN ESCORTS · 04-26-2011, 06:14 AM

I'm looking at targeting a well known porn persons name, which domain would you consider best from an SEO point of view:

(firstname)-(lastname).NET

(firstname)(lastname)(some random word for example "tube").COM

so basically one is a hyphenated dot net the other the other a 3 word non hyphenated dot com ?

Thanks

1. fisrtnamelastname.com
2. firstname-lastname.com
3. firstname--lastname.com

only .com try for exact match ddomain , or add hyphens.
good luck

Dot com, as many as i could get related to the keyword

Tons of surfers put "tube" on the end of their searches now even though they really mean "video clip" or "free video".

Not a fun of hyphens.

If the random word has more than one character, "(firstname)-(lastname).NET" is preferred based on higher keyword density.

czarina · 04-26-2011, 10:25 AM

firstname-lastname.net

Thanks for input, interesting what Jack Sparrow said, I looked back at my analytics, every .com took a hit from Panda but every single .net went up, not massive either way. Also all my .nets are on page 1 of Google for the terms I want including a hyphenated one so in the end I went for (firstname-lastname.net)
Did Panda level things out as regards .net versus .com ?

tld has nothing to do with it....

.com is king in terms of recognizability, type-in-ability etc, but you can make any domain rank... Hell, I've got hundreds of .info's in top 3 positions for their keywords....

VIXEN ESCORTS · 04-26-2011, 03:18 PM

Surely Google must factor in somewhere what the tld is, it clearly does with country, .org .info .mobi I'd be amazed if that didn't play a factor but not sure what weight or purpose they'd put on a .net versus a .com which clearly both have been affected.
