Domain Advice - Which one to take?

I've got a 3-word keyword (last word: review) with 30.000 monthly searches, so I think it's kinda good . But now I want to have a domain name, but not sure which one to take. Could some fellow warriors help me?

Option one:
[word1]-[word2]review.com

Option two:
[word1]-[word2]-review.com

Option 3:
[word 1&2]-reviews.com (or [word1&2]-review.com -that doesn't matter right ?)

Now I took the .com extensions, but all the non-interrupted (so without a -) aren't available for .com / .net / .org. Are other extensions good, or should I stick with those? I heard from some people it's best to stick with those for SEO.

What would you choose & why ? Really hope someone can help me out!

    Go for the .com extension, and i will recommend option 2 if you must have two words, but if they can be conviniently merged into one, then go for option 3

      All serious marketers knows that your website domain name says a lot about your business. in my opinion, the shorther, the better because customers will have more chance to remember your website. If I were you, I will go for option 3 because of that. Plus, if you can have a .com. Just take it! .com is an authority. By doing so, you will say to the world, that you take your business seriously...
      Hope that help.

      I learned that .info's are not good for much. Stick with a .com

      Try for keyword 1 and keyword 2, or keyword1 or 2 and three, or any combination.

    .org, .com, .net, .co
    are pretty all you need.

    I have a .biz, and see anything wrong with it.
    I also have a .co.. the extension doesn't do much really.

      Then I have a little - between my first and second word, isn't it better to have that "-" just before review? Like option 3.

      That one isn't available. Only some with a "-" between the words.

      .com is mostly the best right :p?

    For SEO purposes, a .info can rank as well as a .com. It all depends on the domain owner's ability to do proper SEO. You'll find a number of threads here discussing how much the extension doesn't matter.

      I do have one domain with three hyphens and it seems to work quite well and I see more and more domain names with hyphens are appearing. The choices you offered I would go for the second one, I think that would look the best.

      If your site will be informational then .info would also be very good option as .info has become quite popular and strong domain extension. We have informational site on .info and it has given us big advantage over the other domain extensions. But if your site is eCommerce site then of course .com would be the best option for you.
