URL SEO Quick Question

Michael Stetina · 05-21-2011, 03:28 PM

Hi!

Is the url <make-money-online.com> as powerful to Google rankings as <makemoneyonline.com>?

Thanks!

Hi Michael,

Yes, it's the same for Google and the other search engines.

It's not the same for people though, as they'll need to remember to type 2 "-".

But if makemoneyonline.com is taken (as I bet it is), you should definitely go with make-money-online.com.

Good luck!

Actually, multiple dashes (more than one) in a domain name are a spam signal and should be avoided.

Btw, it is a very small signal. But, if you have a low quality content, duplicate content, or a thin affiliate site, this signal will just continue to hurt you when combined with all the other things. You better have some high quality content and high quality backlinks in that domain.

It seems no-match type can still do good to SEO work!
