Hi Guys and Domain experts :)

I am wondering ... is it recommended to have a domain name with a keyword available in another famous domain name? by the way we have different fields but we share the same keyword... like it is booking for hotels and mine booking for cars.... and it's stronger than mine since it's using only the booking word and it is the domain.... so is it going to be a reason that i will be forced to make very high marketing budgets and i found my self in the middle of unnecessary competition with that famous domain which can be of course spending much more for google ads than what i can spend.... for example: let's say my domain which i am planning to buy is bookingflight.com , does that means anyone will search google using (booking) word will match the ads for booking.com since it's a very famous domain and my ads with the same word but for different product will be only after that domain booking.com??

In another words... is that whole idea to have a domain name with a well known keyword similar to a famous domain name since many years a good idea? or there are no effects? or it's recommended idea so i may get some benefits because my domain will be easy to remember and using a strong keyword that people search google using it all the time but it is similar to other famous domain and for different audience like he is to make hotels booking and mine to make car booking.... your feedback is much much appreciated!!! and thanks in advance.

Hello @OsssOsss
I did see your post yesterday, I am sorry I did not respond then.

Booking.com - Hotels
BookingFlight.com - Flights

Booking is a generic word, in the sense, it is an action performed and does not point to an object like for example Flight points to a bulk of metal capable of flying whereas booking points to someone performing an act of booking something. I am pretty sure google understands that and will most probably provide results based on what the user searches for.

For example, I make 2 searches on google,
1. "booking"
i[dot]imgur[dot]com/3spWqDk.png
2. "booking flight"
i[dot]imgur[dot]com/3jZgzgS.png

please replace [dot] with an actual dot (.). I am a newbie I am not allowed to post links. Sorry for the inconvenience.

These images would tell you everything you need to know. As you can see "booking" returns a result with booking.com being first which is a result of the hard work of the promotion done by booking.com. Also you can notice that the result page of "booking" not only consists of hotels but also of flights, movies and trains.

The result of "booking flight" consist of only results pointing only to flights.

The important point to take into account is the keyword you are going to focus more on. Nobody (common man) is going to search for "booking" on google. He/she is going to search for something to book "booking hotels", "book a flight to Chennai", "Online flight booking", "Booking Trains" and so on.

I am residing at India so my results are based upon my location. It will vary based on your location as well but I am sure the way it works will be the same.

I hope I have given you some clarity. Feel free to throw a question on any place I was vague so I can detail it.

PS: The reason I believe you did not get replies was because your post is hard to read and grasp the meaning easily. Break your sentences into smaller ones. It is said that a human brain can handle only 7 words at a time. Smaller sentences and smaller paragraphs will make it easier and interesting to read ;)

Hi Dineshkp thanks man for your great reply and nice advice about the human brain RAM lool :)

Actually the point about booking word since it's a very famous word in the internet and search sites and as you know it is taken by the huge booking dot com website , so i was afraid to have it in my new domain then all my clients will be redirected to booking dot com website instead of mine .... but after deeeeeeep search i found that google can handle this matter based on the keywords used by people to find their needs so i am not worry anymore of having booking as part of my new domain since i will build my new website with my targeted keywords .....

Also .... sure i will have the advantage of that easy to remember and famous word to be part of my domain and for the long run if i worked hard i will be in the position with booking dot com!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :) :) :) :) but for my targeted services .

Thanks again to those 91 viewers i love you alllllllllll and if i will be alive after many years i will get back to you and i will give you a special promotion to book by my famous website :)
