Choose the Right Domain Name or Die

Category: Experiments, Getting Web Traffic, Link Building and SEO

Most people think that when you get a top domain name with niche keywords inside, you will have more chance to be indexed in top search result pages of Google. It isn’t true if the niche you want to dive is overcrowded. For example, I tried to run an experiment with a domain name called as BestDealHostingWeb.com with a basic content. The result isn’t successful because there are tons of similar domain names with lots of content and are added every day. I need to put so much unique content but I can’t invest much time on it when the success is not certain. So, I then tried to get cheap traffic with Google Adwords, but because of the high keyword competition it resulted again in failure. Now, all I need to make at least $10 in a year for this website to compansate using other advertising platforms like entrecard and social network postings. $10 seems to be funny but if you continue to develop a network of let’s say hundreds of blogs and websites, even the minimum profit becomes really important.

Before buying a domain name, it is essential to make a basic niche search. According to my experience minimalism is the future for the small websites and blogs for survival. So, it is a better idea to open a website about volcanos of Mexico than simply web hosting offers because you will have easier traffic from search engines with much less content and efforts.

  1. You know - I considered doing the same - let me know how it works out …

  2. Maybe I can help you turn a profit a little eaiser. In the upper right hand at my blog I’ve got a thing for 1.99 .com’s

  3. Thanks for the tip. I am looking to start up a new blog but haven’t been able to come up with a name or niche I want to concentrate on. I will follow your advice and do a search right away!

  4. Actually you can find many niches, but you should trace the new products which can be popular in the future. For example, it is already so late for Apple iPhone keyword but you can still be successful on sub-niches as I did.

    http://appleiphonecases.blogspot.com

    are just two examples for better SEO.

  5. My blog is fairly new, but as soon as I have it totally set-up and have decided on the advertising that I will use, I will focus on opening up some more blogs. I am hoping that I will be able to set-up another 5 or so over the next 3-4 months.

    Your statement about getting a tiny profit from each one is so right. It is ok to have a few main sites, but having smaller ones that provide a small daily income is more than just ok.
