Hi Guys,

I'm about to work on a new project/niche and need to make a decision as to which domain to pick as the "money site".

I own 2 domains with the exact 3 word phrase and can buy the phrase with a 3 letter pre-fix or suffix.

It's a UK based company and targeting google.co.uk

So my question is, which is the strongest of these?

keyword-in-keyword.co.uk
keywordinkeyword.net
keywordinkeywordxxx.com
xxxkeywordinkeyword.com

Thx in advance

Within reason I can have anything I want for the xxx as no one else has thought of it.

Strongest for what is my question?

keyword-in-keyword.co.uk - has the best SEO value in my opinion because the hyphens are seen as spaces. A domain without spaces such as keywordinkeyword.net will only match "keyword in keyword" exactly. keyword-in-keyword.co.uk has an advantage because words or subphrases can also be matched in seaches.

The domain keywordinkeywordxxx.com is better than xxxkeywordinkeyword.com because you lose the exact match possibilites due to the xxx in the start. But keywordinkeywordxxx.com may not work well since the xxx muddies up the keywordinkeyword for an exact search.

Since I live in the US, I would only consider keywordinkeyword.net. If you want a wider audience I would not use the .uk domain despite it being better for SEO.

Since you are going to be creating a site, the SEO value of the domain should not be a major consideration. The reason I say this is that if you work on the SEO for your site you can easily rank higher than any keyword domain if all other factors are about the same, like backlinks. For a site get the best name that fits what the site is about. For example, a site about web design could do quite well with a domain like "DesignedWell.com" even though it's weak on keywords.

You should consider the possibility of selling the site in the future. Which domain do you think will have more value to a buyer?

Good Luck!


Thank you very much for the detailed answer. I very much appreciate you taking the time to post.

After getting advice here and on other forums and friends I have opted to use the keyword-in-keyword.co.uk as the main money site. This will have the products for sale and be used for PPC as well as SERPS. It certainly looks better for PPC than anything with a prefix or suffix.

One of the main deciding factors is that as I'm targeting UK customers I assume they are more likely to feel comfortable paying for goods over the internet on a CO.UK website.

I have put up wordpress blogs on all the others. They will all link into the main site.

Anyway thx for the replies. Hope I can help you guys sometime soon.
