      Hi,

      I am going to start a new website

      What I want to know is:

      www. keyword1 and keyword2 . com

      If I buy

      www. keyword1and . com

      And I put /keyword2  will this get any value?

      Or is it better to find  a shorter more branded domain name.. rather than chasing for value from Google.

        if this is a pure online store  and you don't intend to do any real branding I would try o get a exact match domain keyword.com I assume that is taken so go with the keyword and another word or partial word like keywordoutlet.com try to ue a word the fits what you do 🙂 then you an add /keyword2 for a page targeting keyword 2.

        Good luck

          Thanks for the response,

          My question was referring if i am targeting exact match  "keyword1andkeyword2" including the and word.

          and I have a domain keyword1and.com is it better than having keyword3.com (branded)

            keyword3.com is better then keyword1and.com - best if you can include both keywords 1 and 2 in one domain and not sound spammy that's ideal-but hard to say more without knowwing the keyword

              What if the keyword1and.com sounds good as a brand as well :))

                Hard to imagine that 🙂  and sounds like it should have somthing after it.   As far as seo value keywordand.com is not as good as keyword1keyword2.com since and doesn't really say aything about your business
