Why do Hyphenated keyword domains rock?
Because the type-in traffic crowd just don't get it !! Consequently, hyphenated domains (any extension) are dirt cheap and usually available straight from your registrar for a lousy six bucks or so.
Anyone with half a brain can run a hyphenated domain to the top of Google, MSN, Yahoo and all the other search engines in a few days. Piece of cake.
Search google.com for "
custom bikini" . There is our custom-bikini.com at #3 out of 628,000 competing pages. And for the plural "
custom bikinis" we are also #3. Yahoo puts us #1 and so does LiveSearch at search.msn.com.
Search google.com for "
used fur coat". There is our used-fur-coat.com at #2 out of 1,130,000 competing pages. And for the plural "
used fur coats" there is our used-fur-coats.com also #2. And #1 in Yahoo and #1 MSN.
I could go on and on . . . but a custom-bikini order just came in. Gotta run and process it.
Do hyphenated keyword domains rock? You betcha. That's why I own more than 800 of them.
If you are looking for Canadian traffic, .ca domains are the way to go. Easy to find, easy to buy and easy to run up the flagpole in Google.ca
Good luck with yours and ignore the "type-in traffic" crowd. They really don't get it. There is much, much more to traffic than type-ins.
