All About Exact Match Domains!

6 replies
The question is " Does you exact match domains work domains work in 2013 "? I can honesty say yes to that! Why? Since Google did their little algorithm update many think that you can not rank a domain with the exact same keywords as the domain.

Just a quick example by what I mean when I say EMD I mean if you were targeting the keyword " make six figures online ". Awhile back all you had to do was buy the domain makesixfiguresonline.com and you get ranked just that easily. You got high ranking points in Google eyes even if you had no content on your site! Of course these types of sites were ranking like crazy!

Then the update came and many sites were hit hard! You can still rank in 2013 even though Google took some of the power away. If you own a domain and have unique content on your site then you will get ranked and on the first page of Google results. Sounds awesome right!!!

Here is some that you should remember when buying domains: Always get the .com, .org, or .net if available!

Thanks would love to hear your comments and concerns!

    If you do a search for "record label business plan" on Google you will notice that our .info ranks third from the top on the first page today and some days it's the first result on the top while our .com is hiding somewhere. Sometimes the .com shows up on the first page on the top however it's the .info that usually wins. Most SEO experts would probably say its because our info is better optimized for what Google happens to like today.

      I always wonder where the .com was hiding some of the results I see! I sure appreciate you for the heads up!

    I haven't done enough testing myself.

    But I have a PMD with my keyword in it. And I can say for sure this site has been a blessing to rank compared to the last site I made in a similarly competitive niche that did not have my keyword.

    Its not just my more competitive keywords that rank better, but all my keywords seem to rank a little easier.

      I am glad to hear that! The first site I ever made is doing numbers compared to any other site I made lol. I consider that lucky because that was my first site I ever created!
