Hi
I am really confused
what is the best approach, choosing an Exact Match Domain for one main keyword with low competition and good searches and then build many keywords to this domain

or exact match domain for every keyword
which means multiple sites for one niche

    they both work depending on the niche and several other factors ... maybe a combination of two?

      Depends on what you're trying to do. Are you making a highly targeted site about "little red doll shoes" or are you making a site about "Doll Clothing" and want to have some pages devoted to shoes.

      I don't get overly hung up with EMD, if they're available and it makes sense for the site I'm building then I'll use it. But It's not the be all end all.

      If you're going to be building an authority site, I would recommend exist an EMD for sure. I'd be much more concerned about branding that site rather than getting a little SERP boost for 1 keyword.

      Nothing to see here

    Go with a main EMD keyword and then use other keyword phrases as categories and build around those.

    I often choose one main keyword as a EMD and then use exact match sub-domains for the most important keyword for each smaller group. I think this is the best method.

    It depends how much traffic the keyword is getting. If the keyword is getting over 1000 visitors per month I think EMD for a single keyword would work.

    It be great if able to have EMD for main keyword that have sufficient search counts but please don't forgo good main KW just because of EMD. SEO is long term traffic that need consistent backlinking.

    As for other pages one KW per page.

    Hope it help.

    Yours Sincerely
