One of the reasons why domains command such a huge price is the fact that it gives you instant SEO that you get to the first page quickly. However, as people say that they’ve missed out on all good domains then they’re wrong. Every single day a lot of great domains are dropped or are left unregistered, it’s for all of us to find and explore our “secret” topics to find these SEO friendly domains.

When you look, you’ll find all the 1 word domains taken. Some taken way way back in the 90′s and are being sold in the market. You see, that’s what I’m NOT talking about, these are going to cost you money (if you do have the money then it is much better). What I’m talking about is using the exact phrases (more than a word) in your domain‘s keywords.

Single Word Domains VS Exact Phrase Domains

Domains, like Cars.com, has been registered since ’98 and commands a high rank in the word “Cars”, so imagine today if you target the word “Cars” then do you think you could rank higher than Cars.com? (Maybe you could but you’d need a lot of time and money) The opening in SEO right now is exact phrase domains, like I wouldn’t be searching for cars if I wanted to find one specifically in Metro Manila Philippines (I’d find cars from other countries), but I would try to find “Used Cars in Metro Manila” right? That’s exactly what the opening in the web is, it may not command the same SEO as those one word more than a decade old domains but it certainly hits niches that search specifically for what they need. So in this case an exact keyword domain like UsedCarsMetroManila.com or UsedCars.PH would be more suitable.
