Domain choice question for SEO Geniuses

cowboy asked 4 years ago
Say I am making a mini site optimized to sell Blue Widgets, and my principal targeted keyword is “blue widget” (singular). Bluewidget.com, .net, and .org are taken, as are bluewidgets.com, .net and .org AND blue-widget.com, net., .org AND blue-widgets.com, .net, and .org – all taken!

In that situation, do you think a better choice for the domain name would be:

bluewidgetz.com

OR

bluewidget.me?

The goal is to come up #1 in the SERPS for “blue widget”.

The second one is always better. Keywords in the domain and all that.

aggree with Tryme1

If bluewidgetz.com is available you might want it too for non plural searches… and more brandable and easy to remember cause its .com

i would ditch both (widgetz or anything with a Z sounds a bit scriptkiddieish imo) and would buy something like bestbluewidgets.com or freebluewidgets.com fwiw…

people like to type “best X” and “free X” in to google etc a LOT, so you will get lots of organic search value as well as the SEO value associated with a self-seo’ing domainname.
