Hi Name Pros,

I am curious which domain I should use for my company website.

Lets use "Baseball Bat" and "Baseball Bats" as an example.

According to a Keyword Tool: Keyword + Baseball Bats gets searched for more than Keyword + Baseball Bat

Naturally, BaseballBats.extension (plural version) describes the products / services perfectly. However, would using the singular version BaseballBat.extension (singular version) somehow rank better with search engines?

Whichever ranks best is where the other version will 301 to.

That said, should I go with ...

A) BaseballBats.extension >> 301 >> BaseballBat.extension

OR

B) BaseballBat.extension >> 301 >> BaseballBats.extension

Please assist and explain why what's best etc -- thank you!

Good advice.

I wouldn't worry to much about SEO though. Focus instead on what and how the audience searches for it.
