hi all,
I'm not sure if this has been discussed before.
i'm considering a certain domain for development and the KeywordKeyword.com is taken (only parked)
What's your opinion on whether to develop on Keyword-Keyword.com, or on KeywordKeyword.org ... ?
does it make a difference from an SEO perspective? if you have any other thoughts i would love to hear. Thanks!
I prefer the .org in your situation. P.S. You may be surprised the org can also get typeins depending on the name.Originally Posted by HomerJ
thank you trader. any other reasons for that?
If your website fits well with a .org domain, it is a good option.
However if it is a store (for example), I'll go for the hyphen .com
I have a few hyphenated sites which do as well from seo point of view,
as well as user recognitions.
thank you siteman
hyphenated name (from the same reasons as above)
.org domains revenue generation in many biz models are far less as to a decent .com models.
.com (hyphenated) i will rate a marginal higher then the .org for commercial business purpose.
COM, NET and ORG tlds/extn are equally good for SEO (except direct traffic - .com leads) point of view.
Buying your .net.in, .co.in, .in cctlds. Generics (Preferred) OFFER NOW
I have two examples that have worked well. The first is apple-pie.com (really wouldn't work with a .org) and the other is isotope.org (probably the best extension for the topic). It all depends on your market. From what I've gathered, Google doesn't seem to care about the dash. A-B-C has just as many results as ABC.
My 5-year old daughter needs a kidney transplant. Contact me if you're willing to join a potential donor pool.
thanks everyone. to add, it will be an affiliate site for a type of online product, if that helps the discussion any
edit: i have chosen the .org. thanks all
