Should You Buy A .Com, .Net or .Org?

It is our opinion here at PreciseInternetMarketing that choosing a keyword rich domain name, is good practise from an seo point of view. If you are building a business or a brand then you might want to choose a different name. However, if you are ranking a site purely for seo then always start by choosing a keyword rich domain name. Firstly we believe that keyword rich domain names carry inherent seo value in the eyes of the search engines. Although can’t say the exact extent, a quick browse through the search engine results pages, quickly shows that keyword rich domain names get preferential weight. One of the main advantages of having a KWRD is that when you get a backlink you are guaranteed to get your desired anchor text. If you are not aware already, the anchor text if your backlink is extremely important. The anchor gives a very clear indication to the search engines about what the website is about. The search engines rely on citation or votes from other sites to help judge what a site is about. If you have a large number of websites from around the web linking to you with you desired anchor text, which in this case is “web design manchester” then the search will start to rank you for that desired keyword. The great thing about having a keyword rich domain name is that you are guaranteed to get an anchor text link every single time.

A quick note about .com,.net and .org…

You may notice that there is some debate in the internet marketing communities about which extension is more effective for ranking a domain. We believe that it is best to go for .com, however if you can’t get the .com try and get the .net or .org, as these seem to be just as effective when ranking websites. If anyone tries to argue you with you otherwise have a look at wikipedia.org, probably one of the most powerful sites on the internet and occupies 1st page position for literally thousands of diiferent keywords. So if it is good enough for wikipedia then it is good enough for us!
