If there is not EMD left for a keyword can you still outrank those that have the EMD ddomains?

Can you out rank sites that have the EMD's? Mine isn't exact match but it's close...i have another word in my URL along with the dot com...overtime...is it possible to out rank those sites?

Yes, you just need more backlinks and better SEO. How much "more" is too hard to quantify and varies from keyword to keyword.

Ya, exact match isn't a requirement for ranking, just a boost when your on the lower levels of SEO. I think the returns are diminishing once you start getting into upper lever marketing and seo.

Yep, just throw a heap of links at it and make sure you have more than them plus of course on page SEO
