Do you prefer keywords in domain name for SEO?

No I don't think so keywords are required in the domain name for SEO. You can use keywords in inside page URL or in blogs URL.

NO, I don't prefer.

It is just logical to think like that. If you have an email service, logically, email.com will be a great domain. It was earlier told that having key words in domain does help in SEO.

Google too might give preference to keyword stuffed domain name. If you check the SEO services, most of them have the word " SEO " stuffed into their domain, no matter what they say of about it.

Google changed it’s algorithm, so websites that used domain names like that wouldn’t rank just for the simple fact that the keyword was in the domain name. And yes, that used to be the case, before the update.

No, i don't think so you can use domain as your keyword.

You are wrong, keyword in domain still works, just don't spam anchor links to it.

I prefer keywords in domain name as it helps to optimize your domain name better in search engines.

it is really important that you buy a domain name that is related to your website content and is helpful if you buy it with related keyword it will bring ur blog or website on to of your search results

Not sure about others but I prefer brand keywords rather than keywords in domain. It simply restrict you into a certain niche, that's why.

Offcource not if you want to put the unique and short name to your domain.

I prefer keywords in domain name ;) in my case works better.

Why not, Extra benefits.

But the only sad cases was...mostly taken by others and not too good in visual with long name

Domain name with SEO not only easy to ranked, but also makes relevant whenever visitors saw your name..

It is not necessary as it was some years back. And, if you choose the unique and attractive, short and easy to remember domain to your website then that is better.

Sometimes when i want to go for niche specific

Keywords in domain are probably good for writers, but not so much for businesses, because you want the businesses name in the domain. But, some keywords here can help too. For example, Joe's Chinese restaurant in Provo might want joeschinesefoodprovo in the url, and Joe's Chinese Provo as title so if someone searches Chinese food Provo it matches.

No, I don't think so keywords are required in the domain name for SEO.

Nah, keywords aren't persay a must, but I guess in some instances it could be very handy. Especially for locals to recognize/remember.

Yes, I prefer domains with keywords. This assists SEO greatly

Yes, keyword based domain name & inner webpages start more quickly to rank higher.

A SEO-optimized domain name is one that tells people what the website is about, the products and services it offers, etc. So, yes, domain names have an impact on SEO. Having the right domain name can help you target your audience and accelerate your search engine placement. But it's more than just keywords.
