The Role Of A Good Domain In SEO Results
- SEO |
I am finding more and more that the sites where I have a high quality (read that Keyword Rich) domain name outperforms a site with a poor quality (even shorter) domain name in getting traffic from the organic search results.
Oh, I can get them to rank well just fine!
Problem is, people just don't click on them.
I have sites that are in the top 3 on page 1 of Google for high volume search terms (several 1,000 searches daily) that aren't getting more than a small handful of clicks every day. These are always the sites without relevant domain names to the search being conducted, such as an acronym or something very general.
I also have sites that are getting a couple of dozen hits daily from search terms that only have a hundred or so searches every day that are down around the number 6 spot on Google's first page. These are the sites with an extremely relevant domain name. Sometimes (but not always) containing the term being searched for.
Just some food for thought...
