Why You Shouldn't Use Exact Match Domains (Don't Make This SEO Mistake)

Million thanks for your valuable tutorials. I learned a lot from your channel 🙏🏻

Hey neil

Why you are not hiding your Wp-admin page. Does it create any SEO problem or anything else. Please tell me because I have just trying to change the login page of my site.

Hey Neil, what about (niche+city).com that seems to be ranking well without much content?

Seo made easy with you

Gee Neil, the catfishes of domains' industry would ban this! How can them sell their one word .com domains for the 5-6 figures they actually try on???
Btw always great Infos on your channel, 👍👍

Hi Neil , suppose we are an Ecommerce store selling globally . The results of our SEO optimisation will boost our rankings globally or only for the country we are located in ?

Good explain ,Why people search exact matches domains name overall country because people don't know this facts?

Thanks Neil! That's Really Great Explanation.

No, no, no, Neil. Really?

What app do you use to make this kind of presentation videos

This is great! It clears out the confusion that keyword related domains can be much better. Go for building your brand instead. Thanks for this, Neil!

Hi Neil, I read that EMDs are a good idea if your focus is a local market, and you can get the domain easily. Is this true? Thank you!

Can we have generic domin names for low competitive sites like Quotes Blog and all ?

Its really helpful when you make myth busting videos because these myths cost a lot of time that a business can invest on creating quality content.

Hurt... i have most of domains acutaly dictionory words...can you do good video about impact of traffic becoause of domain name may be..

Great video Neil, we have used many of your ideas to make over $11,000 per month with affiliate marketing at our digital marketing agency. Would love for you to check out our channel and blogs!

Really I didn't agree with that because exact match domains will eventually get more brand loyalty better than any other domains or brand because eventually people will trust that site including Nurse but it takes time

I completely disagree with you on this. I Have made many same name domains hit the top. I have been doing this for over 20 years.

I would like to state that the single caveut to this rule is if you have drilled down to a very very VERY tight niche that has decent kw searches, but the few competitors are reletively incompetent or flat-out ignorant in seo on and off site, you can actually build "brand auto suggestion" serp rankings in the top 1-3 listings if you have a good grasping on what to do and how to do it at a steady pace with high quality unique content. I've gotten 5-7 such branded "exact match" domains ranked in such manner including even auto suggestion serps that achieve good ctr/low bounce rate.

It's a "perfect storm" of sorts, combining kw research, scoping what competitors are doing and how poorly they are doing it, drilling down to a very very tight but profitable niche, and building exact match searchs so much that it becomes a 'brand' of sorts, ergo ranking in all top 3 in serp

i am a locksmith in the Netherlands, and i have 45 EMD domains like locksmith''city''.com and it works perfect for me, and i rank much faster and more easy then my branded domainname.

I think it's not the same when the EMD is longer and more specific.

Sir using hyphen (-) in domain name is good or bad for ranking and other factors? Please reply ❤❤❤

your an idiot

Honestly, it's not well explained it just makes me so confused because there are always exceptions in which it's better to have an exact match. what I understand is there is no way to benefit from Exact much which is not true?!?! because there are many SEO strategies in which you can use exact match domains to direct traffic to your website. I hope that you provide any explanation🙏

What if I chose a wrong domain name? How can I rebrand?

Hi brother, I wanted to purchase a domain which is exac keyword and main keyword of our field and also that is most expensive domain. Should I buy this or not? I will be thankful for your great answer.

We believe that this is a good learning.

Hi what if you own a couple of really good domain names. Is it best to just put them up for auction or can you park them somewhere for traffic?

Bullshit...I have an EMD that ranks #1 for my money keywords. I rank above higher da sites with way more backlinks than me.

If my main website selling motorcycle protection is none related on the original domain, would you then suggest buying another domain that is available as an exact match to divert to my website? Many Thanks

I almost made the same mistake. What a great help thanks!

Hi Neil, thanks for your video. It's always helpful 😃 Just a question regarding choosing exact match domains, what if I choose long tail keyword with low competition for my domain name? The purpose is to target only a narrow niche (one or two product only) with 10 to 30 pages or posts in total in a whole website. Thanks for your time 😃

Great information. Are you responsible for creating the indented listing? Is it you or Google?
Also, I notice that next to your name is: '> what-is-seo'. Is Google responsible for putting that next to your name? or is it you?

Which plugin your using for the cpc? Thanks

But if an exact match domain has quality content and metrics that rival its competitors, it should still have a good chance of ranking high in google search right? It's not like the domain will be instantly pulled down the ranks just because of having an exact match keyword right?

Disagree. Having EMD’s has brought us many free leads and saved us a heap of money on advertising.

Hello dear Neil
Can two domains with the same name but different extensions belonging to two different people be harmful to the SEO of two sites?

Is it beneficial to have more than one route domain name then, using a redirect back to one relevant site to help with Google ranking?

Thanks neil fir this information

Do you mind sending some of that traffic my way, Neil? Could you give me a slice of that million? 😂😂 In all seriousness, thanks for sharing your knowledge with us.

Hey neil ! Can i buy a keyword related domain name only for traffic i want in this domain ?

This sounds dumb asf

Loved content...awesome guy❤❤may allab bless you

One of keyword match with Domain Available
But my keyword Is long like 19 latter
It's Good For Buy or Not?

What if i choose an exact Domain name of my focused keyword and I publish quality contents of same keywords ?

Doesn't make any sense. Without the key words you would not be ranked anywhere at the top to be degraded anyway. Big deal if your push down 3rd or 4th because it's still better than 300 or 400

sir as a student is there any way to join your team for learning under your supervision? eg. internee or trainee

Have to disagree from my experience. Look up "Pittsburgh Roofing".
