    Nice vid link this… remember seeing it for the first time a while ago now, but yea – i like to go for domains that are closely related – thus electrician becomes, electrical – this way we can tease googles LSI and hope that we go up – i find that sometimes it can limit you though with a keyword rich domain – as in – if you buy – usedshedsforsale.co.uk – then what if later you want to sell new sheds aswell?

    Thanks for the read!

    I think its easier to say go for the brandable name if you are in space that isnt competitive but for the majority of people who are trying to make a monetary living from the web its critical to give yourself the best possible shot and for thats in a keyword rich domain!
