Default warning the importance of domain names.

Just another example of how much importance google is giving to domain names in the SERP's.

http://www.google.co.uk/search?hl=en...G=Search&meta=

We sit at No2 but take a look at the content of the No1 site.

This site has no links showing to it.?

I would say it is more to do with how remote the phrase is, just write it on
any page and I would think it will go top 10.

I have several site with top ranking based only on the domain name.

As i would mention, your key-term in your website url increases your chances of getting to top 99%. Your ranking in top serp gets easy and faster!

Ask yourself this question,
Who would register a site with the keyword in the domain?

I think it might be more to do with links...but I'll admit I haven't checked.

strange the site has gone from its No1 spot.?

One wonders if google is monitoring the forum and corrected there mistake.?

The blog is wrong Richard I have many sites to prove that.

The police are taught not to cross there arms when driving,must be why the crooks always get away.


I would seriously think about your ratio of 70% of links,domain names are making rubbish of links.
