I have 180 keywords that i marked as Green, so Do i buy a domain and make blogs in it for many keywords or do I buy a separate domain for Every single keyword? I’m a new here so I’m a bit confused.

First, when looking for a domain name, you should strongly consider purchasing a domain that is already in use and has some age. Any domain over 5 years old will do VERY well on Google in terms of ranking for keywords. Just be sure to check the domain wasn't previously banned or blacklisted. Secondly, you should register your domain for the maximum 10 years...I found this incredible tip from reading Problogger and trust me, it has helped with my Search Engine rankings..I think the SE's think a long registered name shows you are not a spam site and you are serious about business!

I wanted the name of the website to tell people exactly what the site would be about without them ever having been to it. In this way, it is easier for folks to decide whether it's a topic they are interested in. While I'm sure this hurts traffic a little bit, it ensures that my target audience are the primary people that go and actually read my site. Once again, thank you Courtney for a super imformative and well written article. Your advice has helped me in more ways than you can imagine:-) Anyone reading this, I highly suggest that you listen to what Ms./Mrs. Tuttle has to say...she knows what she is talking about! http://www.livingwithanerd.com While my little website is not just a blog, the ideas presented in this article were something that I thought about.

And the most momorable domains probably have 2 words or part of them but still 2. This will both help you having a keywords in the name and make it easier for the public to remember it and give it regular visits :) . Good Luck!

Having a domain name that tells me what your site is about does wonders especially with a list like that. ~Dawn I was going through your ‘d-list’ of sites and since there were so many, I picked out the ones that I wanted to comment on, but I picked it out based on their domain name.
