Are Keyword Rich Domains Given more weight by Google compared to Yahoo and MSN/Live?
By Benj Arriola - Posted on Wed Nov 1, 2006I have posted a poll on the homepage of Ituloy Angsulong, asking this question:
Which of the following you think will be the first Ituloy AngSulong site to get the number 1 rank?
- A keyword rich domain with Ituloy AngSulong.: 43%
- An existing Isulong SEOph website.: 0%
- An old domain.: 14%
- None of the above.: 43%
With a mixed number of respondents, many believed an Isulong SEOph website will not be the first to get the number 1 spot. As I have mention in my previous post, the first is MSN was Whin’s BBD. And that specific post was an Isulong SEOph website. The first on Yahoo was Benj’s isulongseoph.com.ph which is also an Isulong SEOph website. But on Google, looks like the survey stats were true. A keyword rich domain was the first to get the top spot right away. Rostom Hernandez, Isulong SEOph 3rd place winner grabs the holeshot in being the first to rank number 1 for Ituloy Angsulong. This does not surprise me at all. Rostom from the very start of the Isulong SEOph competition, he was always in striking distance, never that much far from the current leader.
What is this telling us? Is more weight given by Google than Yahoo and MSN for keyword rich domains?
Share what you think.

[...] In the recent Isulong SEOph competition, we have seen several keyword rich domains who were finalist in the Isulong SEOph competition. But then again, there were several keyword rich domains that also never got to page 1. And aside from that, there were 2 domains that were not keyword rich that were in the top 10. Which were Bicolbusinessdirectory.com, go-oggle.com.ph and kontrapelo.com. So just how important is a keyword rich domain?
