I have a basic domain question in regards to SEO and ranking top on google for a relatively low competition keyword.
Im planning on targeting 2 keywords for a site but the domain realistically can only handle 1.
However, because each keyword has 2 words, I was wondering would I yield more seo value if I use 1 word in each keyword?
For example
2 keywords: "foo bar" & "star wars" (assume they are pretty related/relevant keywords)
naturally foobar.com or starwars.com would respectively rank high on their own keywords but what about foowars.com or starbar.com ?
Is it better to keep the domain targeted to one keyword or would i be able to get some additional value but cross-targeting both keywords in the domains (well more like half each keyword)
Obviously I would need to think about content/titles/etc but because domains and link building are long-term strategies I want to get this sorted first. I also am aware any domain can target any keyword but I want to become a bigger player in the top 10 as few months as possible.
