    Sorry if this is a basic question I should know the answer for. We have just acquired the .org for a moderately well searched keyword set. Our objective is to fight for rank specifically on this one set of two keywords. We want make sure our site is setup and business named optimally for this. Here is my question. What is the best business name for SEO and keyword rich backlinks, or anything else I'm not thinking of?

    KEYWORDS: Blue Widget     DOMAIN: BlueWidget.org

    BUSINESS NAME OPTIONS:

    A) simply BlueWidget.org. We like this but do we lose some benefit of "Blue Widget" with a space on backlinks?

    **B) Blue Widget Foundation. Is this better because people will reference us by the keywords with a space "The Blue Widget Foundation", instead of "from the people at BLUEWIDGET.org"? **

    Am I missing anything important here in the name? We just want to start everything off on the right foot.

    Thank you Moz. Just joined and my first post.

        Thank you Ryan. Very helpful. We are aware there is a lot of work to do. I write and have some recognition in my field, and am prepared to roll up my sleeves for this. Being that we're at ground zero, we just want to start off with the best advantage.

        Thanks to you both for the help!

          I think you have the jist of it. Ryan did a really good job of breaking it down and making what I was trying to say a little clearer. Without knowing specifically what your domain is I cannot tell you whether or not I think it is best practice. And at the end of the day, you have to make the decision that best suits your business and strategy. I only recommend, like Ryan said, using the name on your business cards and letterhead. Branding is very important.

            No, this isn't the industry what we're looking at. Just an example.

            We are the only company with an EMD for the target keywords in our industry. Our .org happens to be fairly brandable for our industry; it should not come across as spammy. It is far more "feedthehungry.org" than "buybabypowder.org". I'm just trying to find out if it hurts to go with this (specifically from a google perspective) or helps to go with this, and if so, if it is better to use a space in our brand name instead of calling ourselves exactly keywords.org. I hope I'm making sense.

              It's ok. It's a little tricky to get as this aspect has changed over the years as well. And Feed The Hungry is a good example of where their brand matches their domain like Monica mentioned earlier.  As a business "Feed The Hungry" is what goes on their business cards, letterhead, LinkedIn, etc. That the brand name is tied in to an applicable search is helpful partly for people who remember them and create a link back to them (branding) and partly as an EDM. Still the press they've gotten, DA they've built, and networking they've done online and off under the name "Feed The Hungry" has a stronger weight than the EDM. That the EDM ties into it though smoothly is icing on a cake built from all those other efforts.  So, EDM isn't worth zero, but you shouldn't sacrifice branding to get one.

              Another search that's instructive: https://encrypted.google.com/search?hl=en&q=google incorporated When you search for Google Incorporated you get different results than just searching for Google, same goes for LeSEA Global Feed The Hungry, Inc vs Feed The Hungry.  Search Engines have done well at figuring out search intent in addition to nuanced differences like lack of spacing in the domain vs the business name (earlier example).  An excellent litmus test would be to go with the name that you feel most comfortable promoting, pressing, and talking about as that's the work that's going to get you to rank.

                Take a look at the competition here. There are far more qualified domains, that should out rank feedthehungry.org. The reason they don't is because "Feed the Hungry" is the brand. If you look, there are other relevant sites that appear with this query, but no where in the title can you see the exact match to the query. If you want to compete on a branded key term like this one, it is going to take strategic back linking and great on page content so that the engines can equate your domain as relevant to the topic.

                  Yes, they show because that is the name of their organization. It is their brand, not their key term. Does that make sense? That is an extremely competitive term. It is a branded key term as well, making it even more competitive because you have to compete with the actual brand name. So if you wanted to compete with them on that phrase, which has only about 700 searches per month, you would need to work extremely hard to get your brand associated with that topic.

                    A good example may be www.FeedTheHungry.org. It comes up first for the search "Feed the hungry".

                    I'd imagine their #1 placement for this search term is due in part to the EMD for "feed the hungry" search. Maybe I'm wrong. If there is an advantage though, would there be any extra advantage to calling themselves the "Feed the hungry organization" vs "feedthehungry.org". This is the crux of my question.

                    Sorry if I'm dense and not quite getting it.

                      No worries. We were all beginners once.

                      I would say your domain name should be the name of your company, your brand. Your key terms will be included in the URL for your categories and products. Stuffing the URL with key terms will not help you rank. Take the baby powder example. If your domain is babypowder.com and your category page is Baby powder, and your product page is entitled baby powder for infants, your URL would be www.babypowder.com/babypowder/babypowderforinfants which is not best practice.

                      If you make your brand johnsonandjohnson.com, your URL becomes www.johnsonandjohnson.com/babypower/babypowerderforinfants.

                      So, to answer your question, no having the keyword in the URL several times does not help you rank. Having a naturally flowing URL that contains your brand and key term is what will help you rank. Having the space in the domain name is frowned upon, it generally isn't best practice.

                      You want to avoid using the EMD, your domain should be your brand name, or business name. An EMD is a domain that exactly matches your key term, like babypowder.com.

                        Thank you! So if I read this all correctly, google will look for the links back to BlueWidgets.org on one hand. On another, google will also be searching the web to see if our corporate (brand) name comes up often. It is not like it is searching the text near (not in) our backlinks to see if our keywords are close too. Rather, google seems to judge the links and our brand mentions somewhat independently.

                        In that case, "BlueWidgets.org" might be good for our brand name if people easily and widely refer to us as "BlueWidgets.org". It doesn't really matter for our ranking if we have that space in the name or not, only that people use our brand name.

                        Put more simply, we don't get any extra SEO push if we make the keywords ALSO part of our brand name. The EMD is enough. Does that sound about right?

                        Thank you for the help. The article was good also. As you can see, I'm a beginner.

                          Take a look at this article about domains. It is very high level, and it breaks down the importance of brand vs. key term. Hopefully it can explain it a little better than I am doing right now, lol.

                            I disagree. I think that if there is any short term value it will be exactly that, short term. There is not enough value for the short term. It will eventually make it harder to rank and then you will have to start over. EMD (exact match domains) have lost significant ranking value. It is what comes after the .com that is important, what products are in your URL, what key terms you use, not what your domain is. It is too easy to manipulate, which is why it has lost its value.

                              Yes, I've read this quite a bit. Still, we surely assumed there would be value in starting a business on "BabyPowder.com" vs "AnyNewBrandNamewithnoKeywords.com", if we're trying to get our traffic from searches for "Baby Powder" specifically, no? Has the EMD value eroded so much that these premium domain names are worthless to build on?

                                The difference is web mentions vs Backlinks. If someone mentions your name, Blue Widgets Foundation, that is valuable in its own way, where as if you were using anchor text it would more likely be for a term you are trying to rank for, like a product or converting term. Not that you couldn't link to your name, because you can. Web Mentions are kind of how engines gauge the popularity of your brand name, and back linking is used to increase the rank of a particular key term and domain authority. Does that make sense?

                                So, it would be like saying "You can find household widgets (Backlink using key term) crafted by the Blue Widget Foundation (web mention - increases brand value and awareness)"

                                  I'm still a bit confused, sorry. I'm new to this all. Let me ask like this. Is there any SEO advantage for search term "blue widgets" with people referring to us with the spaces in our name, in their own posts and backlinks to us? I want to know if  google will give us better ranking if third party articles and forum posts reference like this:

                                  "This article came from the guys at Blue Widgets Foundation. http://www.bluewidgets.org/conent"

                                  Instead of referencing us like this:

                                  "This article came from the guys at BlueWidgets.org. http://www.bluewidgets.org/conent"

                                    I agree with Ryan. I would just add that the value of an exact match domain is no where what it was 3-4 years ago. The way that Google is evolving its algorithm encourage sites to have a "brand" and not a domain that has a highly competitive key term instead of the name of the business. It would be the difference in www.babypowerder.com or www.johnsonandjohnson.org. Baby powder might get more searches, but Google with associate JohnsonandJohnson.org with that term because they are related. Does that make sense?

                                      I see. Here's an instructive search: https://encrypted.google.com/search?hl=en&q=pop urls

                                      The news aggregator popurls (always conjoined in their branding and links) ranks highly for the spaced search while the discussion on the RFC 2384 - POP URL Scheme is further down the list.

                                      Even if you get more far afield in your searches https://encrypted.google.com/search?hl=en&q=pop urls#hl=en&q=face+and+book the conjoined, but well known site ranks higher.

                                        Thank you Ryan. We're not overly concerned with the branding aspect right now. Actually, in our field "BlueWidgets.org" has a sound of authority. We kind of like the name.

                                        If we chose it, people would widely be referring to us as "BlueWidgets.org" instead of the "Blue Widgets Organization" though. I need to know if our links are already pointing to www.bluewidgets.org/content, is there still an added advantage to people referring to us as "Blue Widget Foundation" with the spaces? Does it matter from an SEO perspective specific to these two keywords. The real traffic for us (if we're successful) will come only when people search for "Blue Widgets" in google.

                                        Thank you!

                                          Welcome! There are benefits to each. When people refer to your URL you'll have your keyword set there and when they talk about you as a business the name will be more readable. Very few business come to mind that keep the TLD as part of the business name: eBay, Google, Yahoo... maybe Pets.com--due to it's generic name without the '.com'.  So it's partly a branding decision in that regard.  I think if you do some analysis specific to what your 'blue widget' is you'll come up with a good answer as far as your branding goes. As far as SEO both will work if your presence grows.

                                            Backlinks from translated content

                                            Hello, We have quite a few articles "out there" that give us backlinks. We were thinking of also translating the content and submitting it to local content websites, so it can provide us with more backlinks. The main questions here, will this content be recognized as the same content as the English version? Also, being in another language, some of the anchor text might not hit the English keyword. Not sure how Google sees it. Any advise on the matter? thx!!

                                            What are the SEO implications of high quality backlinks from US-based websites to UK-based websites?

                                            Hi everyone, quick question I hope someone could help me with: We're representing a client based in the UK. As part of their overall strategy we've been linkbuilding. At the moment, about 80/90% of the links we've gained come from UK-based sites, with 10/20% coming from US-based websites. The US based websites are very good (think New York Times and genuine, relevant blogs with good readerships). An external search analyst/consultant has contacted the client to say that the US links will be harming the site, because the links are from websites in the US and not the UK. We believe that if 80/90% of the links were from the US this could indeed cause harm as it could indicate to search engines that our client is in the US when it's not (which might compromise their chance of ranking in .co.uk versions of search engines) however because it's only 10/20%, and because the linking sites are very good, we believe that they will getting all of the benefits of the positive metrics without any meaningful negatives. We just wanted to get a few opinions on this to see if people think that we're mistaken, and would be glad to hear any opinions contrary to our own.

                                            Backlinks through dofollow commenting

                                            I'm interested in building backlinks to my photography business site by leaving good, engaging comments on other photographers' DoFollow blogs. Is this a good idea? Is it worth the effort? Through a little research, I've managed to locate more than 40 dofollow photographer blogs that have a domain authority of 35+. The idea is to take an hour or so a week to leave 10-20 comments on their blog posts. Would you consider this a good strategy? I rank on the first and second page of most of my keywords that I'm working on, but I want to rank 1st or 2nd on them.  I used the keyword finder tool on google adwords to find the keywords that are the most searched for in my area. Surprisingly the competition is not large, so I'm fairly comfident I can get there. I've already optimized my site substantially and I'm looking into link building. Thoughts?

                                            Is commenting on other peoples blogs / articles good for seo?

                                            Hello everyone, Just a quick question, say if I find some websites which are relevant to my service and they have articles I can comment on and include my URL , will these help for SEO? The websites also have a good PR rating higher than 3 does this count towards anything? Would these links be classed 'follow' or 'nofollow' links - could something please explain what this means aswell. Thanks very much!

                                            Web Designers and SEOs using backlinks from client sites

                                            What are your thoughts on SEOs and web designers putting their own links in the footers of client sites. For the sake of argument, lets assume that the client is happy for the link to be there. I'm referring to the SEO merits of the link being there from an 'irrelevant' website. My belief is that this goes against what Google is looking for and that these are irrelevant links and likely to be picked up and penalised.  That's what I believe! However, I see lots of sites offering SEO services that have dofollow links from their client sites, using exact match anchor text and they are all ranking highly. Is it just a matter of time before Google sniffs them out and penalises them for it?  Or should I be going through my client sites and adding myself a dofollow link in the footer? (with their permission of course). The highest ranking sites in any UK city do this.  If you search SEO Manchester, SEO Leeds etc and find the top ranking sites and check them out on opensite explorer, they are all using a disproportionate amount of dofollow backlinks form client sites.

                                            Press Release Sites for Backlinks

                                            OK, I read a previous thread about whether people found press release sites useful (specifically I am considering a reputable pay for release service). I understand the knock on press releases in this digital age (namely that no one reads them and arguably never did . . . ), but I was interested in moving the discussion in a different direction . . . Do press releases services really help a sites performance based on increased backlinking?  Is there a SEO benefit to PR services? My company is a local print company.  I've done quite a bit of research on my local competitors, and specifically for a couple products we would like to dominate.  The good news is that it looks like the hurdle would not be terribly high to really take over the web presence with a well planned and executed website/SEO campaign. My inclination is that for a relatively small company like mine (dealing with relatively small competitors) it WOULD benefit me to pay for the sheer number of backlinks a PR program would generate. The monthly cost is frankly about the same as the cost of this site, which OF COURSE I get value from (hey moderator, how about a couple extra MOZ points for that one!) Specifically, I am looking at this for myself, but feel free to expand the question to the broader topic.
