since I can't get an exact match domain, I was thinking about adding '101' to the end of the domain, so it ends up being Keyword101.com

would adding numbers to the domain work well with seo?
 
i think that would be fine!

keyword101
keyword24
keywordbuzz
using dash for keyword domain
 
Are you guys sure about that? I have around 5 domains with numbers or dashes and they are not ranking as well as those without.
 
I would only do it if it made sense. Like, for example, seo101.com would make sense if you couldn't buy seo.com because "101" is often paired with "teaching," so you're teaching SEO at seo101.com, making it a good domain.

But if it's something like greenbananas72.com, I would be like "wtf is that?" and maybe Google would do the same, who knows.
 
G would surely see that as spam in my opinion, and penalize the domain name
 
ok so give us an exact match domain name with numbers in it ranking for the targeted kw..... They are all banned.

"make money online"

#1 = 101waystomakemoneyonline.com
 
this one doesnt count because the number is legit and make part of the sentence

I am talking about a dn like http://www.keyword234.com
 
I have a bunch of domains with numbers after the keywords that rank great.
 
i had problems with numbers in domains in the past so i stay clear of them.
 
Why don't you give proof? Any domain can get banned and if it has a number in it it's probably just a coincidence.


My proof : just type in G competitive kw and you'll see by yourself there are no domains with numbers.

Your proof : nada
 
not a good one too.

We are talking about http://WWW.COOLKEYWORD678.COM ranking for COOLKEYWORD.
 
Why do you keep asking everybody for proof? You are the one who said all of the domains with a keyword and arbitrary numbers are banned, so show us one of these banned domains and the issue will be put to rest. Stop acting like you are some SEO god. No one gives a shit. People are merely sharing their thoughts on what would be a good or bad keyword and number combination.
