Domain SEO

Hi, May I know for the keyword "engagement rings" which domain is the best in term of SEO perspective?
3)www.engagement_rings.com
Thank you

2 because it's easiest to remember. In 2019 exact-match domains have less impact on SEO, it's more about 10x content and demonstrating a solid value proposition (watch up to the point where issue #1 is fully outlined). SEO is a pretty vast field in modern times. Coding tweaks and URL slugs are still somewhat important, but they provide slight, slight bonuses to your core value proposition (the value-add of your site, to the internet). I don't think engagementrings.com is too bad, but without a solid 'idea' and value-prop behind it, the URL won't magically make it rank alone

As others mentioned here using exact match keyword is no longer useful from an SEO perspective. Based on what I see you are trying to build a niche/vertical website so your site structure and clean internal links, schemas, will be more relevant to your rankings.
But, if I have to choose, the second one for me is the best option

Hi, Backing Joe in, it can sometimes be more complex as can negatively spam yourself, with too much branding.

Having a keyword in a domain name is no longer relevant & hasn't been for a good while - but - in answer to your question, I personally would go for...

Disavow or not? Negative SEO
Since last November we have been receiving a lot of low quality backlinks from over 700 websites. It looks like one of our pages from our website has been copied with the links being kept as they are. I have left a link to an example of this here: https://goo.gl/eWQODJ Please note, all examples seem to be copied in the same way. We have also started seeing a decrease in the amount of organic traffic (Analytics Picture), As you can see the decrease is not yet so drastically high, but it is still a decrease and this is the third consecutive month we have seen this decrease. Do you think it is worth it to use Disavow tool for all of these bad link or not? uuuLt

Do any sub-domains act as Private Blog Networks?
Hi All, We can see now that Google rolled 2 unconfirmed algo updates this month and they are penalising spam links and sites which use Private blog networks; as said by some SEO experts. Do any sub-domains act as PBNs because of too much linking...like linking website pages from every page of sub-domains?

Are businesses still hiring SEO that use strategies that could lead to a Google penalty?
Is anyone worried that businesses know so little about SEO that they are continuing to hire SEO consultants that use strategies that could land the website with a Google penalty? I ask because we did some research with businesses and found the results worrying: blog farms, over optimised anchor text. We will be releasing the data later this week, but wondered if it something for the SEO community to worry about and what can be done about it.

Cross-Site Links with different Country Code Domains
I have a question with the penguin update. I know they are really cracking down on "spam" links. I know that they are wanting you to shift from linking keywords to the brand name, unless it makes sense in a sentence. We have five sites for one company in the header they have little flag images, that link to different country domains. These domains all have relatively the same domain name besides the country code. My question is, linking these sites back and fourth to each other in this way, does it hurt you in penguin? I know they are wanting you to push your identity but does this cross-site scheme hurt you? In the header of these sites we have something like this. I am assuming the best strategy would probably be to treat them like separate entities. Or, just focus on one domain. They also have some sites that have links in the footer but they are set up like:

For product visit Domain.com Should nofollows be added on these footer links as well? I am not sure if penguin finds them spammy too.0 -
