Great article! and thank you for the mention. My husband, Charles, did a great deal of keyword research before buying the domain SimpleDailyRecipes.com. And you're right, about 12% of SDR's traffic comes from the keywords 'simple recipes', making it the top keywords for traffic sources. Yea, Charles! I want to throw in a tidbit. Just as you mentioned buying a domain name that could lead your readers to the wrong site, be careful not to have a domain that is similar to another blog in the same niche. You may find yourself hiring a lawyer to defend your blog of being accused of trademark infringements. That's not fun and it's expensive. .-= Jill McKeever´s last blog ..<a href="http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/simpledailyrecipes/~3/JCE43rSfG9E/">Grilled Boneless Pork Chops from Sloans Creek Farm</a> =-.

What did you do with your old domain? You can sell them at http://marketplace.sitepoint.com Another thing to consider is how well with your domain come up on a search engine? If you add a keyword in the domain it helps alot. If you a doing a review blog put review in the domain, etc. Wendy .-= Sweeties Sweeps´s last blog ..<a href="http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/sweetiessweeps/~3/q-K1bsP8Ui0/weekly-winners-shining-bright.html">Weekly Winners Shining Bright</a> =-.
