I will use iPad 2 as an example for my questions:


1- Which domain name is best:
  • BuyiPad2.com
  • iPad2Review.com
  • iPad2.com
2- Which is easier for SEO?
  • Review site with Amazon links for the product inside the articles and sidebar?
  • Amazon products site with a short review

    I'd think twice before using a domain with "ipad" or ipad2" in it. Since iPad2 was just your example, I'd suggest not relying on any domain containing a brand, product name, trademark, etc. Unless, of course, you own the brand or name.

    Peace.

    Find something to enjoy about reality. It's not going to go away.

      But the site will be promoting their products.

        They dont care it is still their trademark name. I had n site about ugg boots that i was forced to take down for the same reason.

    • iPad2.com
    In order, my preference would be: iPad2.com, iPad2Review.com

    The 3rd one is really weak, IMHO and I would instead look for something like:

    ipad2x.com or ipad2z.com (since they are essentially the same as ipad2.com)

    BTW, I know this is just an example you are using, but steer clear of trademarked names. Your business will be more bulletproof and you'll sleep better at night ;-)

    Search engines (especially the big one) like quality content. The review site, assuming you've taken time to actually purchase the product yourself and you can write a unique, hands-on, first person perspective article that showcases the product's pros and cons (always be up front about the bad stuff as well as the good), then I'd say that's your best bet to gain favor in the SERPS.

    suffix works better in my experience.
