.com with a - or .net without? | Warrior Forum - The #1 Digital Marketing Forum & Marketplace

They'd be the same... The issue is if you want visitors to type in your url... Then, some of them will type .com at the end, ending up on a competitor's site.

Thanks

As far as SERP is concern...
keyword is keyword is keyword regardless if you use it with: .com or .net or .troll

Of course my-keyword is much better!

Example:

dog-crates.com would rank much better than just dog.com (I am just giving an example where in the 1st situation you could rank both "dog" & "dog crates" much easier than in the 2nd situation!)

It would not matter. If you build it around good keywords that you can dominate and build solid backlinks to your page it will rank either way.
