A Winning
Domain Name
A Winning Domain Name
The domain name is one of the most important decisions
you will make when trying to win over the search engine dilemma.
Try using at least one of your best keywords within your domain
name.
The search engine and the directories give higher preference when
your domain name is relevant to your site content or theme. Let
me give you an example of three different ways you could look at
your domain name and how the major search engines will view them
for indexing.
www.trafficnmore.com
www.trafficNmore.com
www.traffic-N-more.com
Which one would you have chosen?
www.trafficNmore.com, Right!
The search engines may not necessarily see it that way. Even though
trafficNmore.com is easily understood by the eye of the visitor,
the search engine will not see the difference between trafficnmore.com
and trafficNmore.com. Both are good ranking for a site dealing with
traffic issues.
Even though you have the approval of your visitor looking for your
information, you could get a higher ranking with the search engines
by using www.traffic-N-more.com and
still keep the eye appeal for your visitor.
Here is why.
The hyphen breaks up a longer domain name to reveal the major keywords
that describe your website content or theme. This makes it easier
for the visitor to understand and most importantly allows the search
engine to detect your keyword for indexing right off the bat. Cool,
huh?
Moral of the story, give your visitor a break, be nice to the search
engines and they'll be nice to you and give you lots of reoccurring
traffic for free.
