    Most times, its the content not the domain mate.

    You can rank anything. Organic search pulls up tons of deep pages and show them as top 10 results all of the time.

    Yes you can, the keywords in the URL play a role, but it's not as significant as keywords in the Title. As long as you don't have an URL that looks like domain.com/?php=298jd29s then you will be fine.

    You can rank anything.

    As long as the URL actually exists, you can rank it.

    Things like content, internal linking, keyword density, all come down to onpage SEO which makes it easier to rank pages through link building (offpage SEO).

    That said, good onpage SEO is not needed to rank a page, it's just better to have it for faster ranking.

    hi, You will get traffic but not on primary domain name but on www domain com / blog you need to put some service or product banners on blog or text link to inner pages of your webiste for traffic redirection towards your services and products.

    Just a question: Then why all these guides suggest you to use exact-match domain names? Whats the point?

      It was only a suggestion...It's not the only way to rank a site. And most important is, it is not "MANDATORY".

      Search engines will not treat you as their special guest if you use EMD.

        Thank you! Cuz I really think that after the panda update, exact match domains are suffering. Also, people trust brand domains - such as about, wikipedia, ehow ... these are big brands, but it is a fact they are much more trusted than any EMD.
