  • Not sure it really matters.
  • If EMD is not avaliable I usually purchase keywordx.com, ekeyword.com, they are really close to EMD and they works for me really good.
  • Just use the emd with a different domain extension like .info, .biz, etc.

    • well, i'm just afraid that if it not .com .net or .org it will be deindex in the future.

  • You don't have to use hyphens for your domain name. Though it will not harm your site, it is not also much advisable to use them.
  • I don't recommend hyphens. we've never had a really successful site with a hyphen yet. not so much for SEO reasons, rather simply because people tend to forget them and it sort of reduces the brand value of the site.
  • It doesn't matter. It is quite true that EMD plays a factor that helps. However, that doesn't mean that having a domain that's not matching with keyword, won't get ranked for that keyword or has something with negative effect.
