Domain Suggestion Tool?
-
Does anyone know of a good domain suggestion tool? I've tried some of them, but wasn't happy with the results.
I'd basically like to put in some key words, and get some suggetions.
Thanks.

Have you tried any of these? http://www.searchenginejournal.com/top-tools-for-domain-name-brainstorming/7208/
In my experience the best domain suggestion tool is a group of people brainstorming in a room. Start off by writing everything down, however stupid it seems, as it might lead to something you like, and then run through and eliminate everything unsuitable later. I use thesaurus tools such as those in word processing software, and online.
There are some important things to consider here: http://www.lifehack.org/articles/lifehack/how-to-choose-a-domain-name.html - and I just saw this while I was there: http://www.lifehack.org/articles/technology/how-to-brainstorm-domain-names.html

Agreed. Build a potential list in Excel, and use a free source tool to plug various one's in to hopefully find somethat that works.
I would do the market and keyword research first for whatever you are trying to buy/build, to ensure you get the best possible mix for domain name to keyword relevancy
Other than that, any domain tool with most companies will work in order to spit back variations, or substitutes if certain ones are not available.
Cheers!

I always refer back to a post from 2006 that you can find here: http://www.dailyblogtips.com/200-prefixes-and-suffixes-for-domain-names/
It has a long list of common domain prefixes, suffixes, and other add-ons that can be used to modify a keyword.
I'll take a large list of those in excel, pump them into a bulk domain lookup tool like the one on namecheap.com, and see what comes out.
I've never found an actual suggestion tool that was any good, most are junk.

Point an expired domain name to web page on website.
I've found an expired domain name with the words Electrical Inspection. its a .co.uk domain. Apparently this key word has a search query of over 1000 per 12 month. I was thinking of purchasing it and having it redirect to one of my pages which is for electrical installation condition reports which is basically an electrical inspection. Is it worth purchasing and pointing to the page on my website (redirect) and how can I go about making it known to google? submit to webmaster tools and create a blog to do with EICR's? thanks for any help and advice Kev ps I found it on https://www.expireddomains.net

Google Keyword Tool: What is considered a unique keyword?
I'm trying to research keywords using Google's Keyword Tool. After looking at results, I have the following questions: 1. Does singular/plurals of a word count as two different keywords to Google (ie: photobooth and photobooths)? Would I need to have a unique page targeting each word or will one page on my site be sufficient for targeting both? 2. I've noticed that different variations of keywords have the same global monthly search results. This leads me to believe that Google see's all of them as one keyword. ie: "photo booth props" and "props for a photo booth" and "props with photo booth", all have 22,200 search global monthly search resluts. On the other hand "moustache prop" and "prop moustache" have different global monthly search results (480 and 590). Can anyone explain this?

Google keyword tool no data for a KW- what to assume in this case?
There are cases when google keyword tool shows just a dash - means no data available and google suggest just use global volume instead. But what if we want to know only local search volume? what should we assume in this case? Does that mean local volume is 0 or it can still be respectable volume & its just Google couldn't find data ?

Is 15 keywords enough to properly optimize content for an entire domain?
I have recently moved in charge of a 95 page web portal that has around 8 categories of content. The SEO agency I am touch with has sent me a proposal that says they will do on-page optimization for this domain for 15 keywords. Should that be enough? What should be my expected outcome? My promise to the client is that core pages from his website will show up early on the SERPs. If they can do this, I am fine with it. Do you think I am getting the right deal? Should I be asking for more?

Are the Volume numbers from the Keyword Difficulty Tool identical to Google Adwords Keyword Tool?
I use the Keyword Difficulty Tool daily. Because of the troubles with Google's API I can no longer see the search volumes. I still want to use the tool for difficulty numbers because I think this is a much better number than the Google Adwords Competitive bar. If I use the Adwords keyword tool for volume numbers, will that be sufficient? Is this the same as what Moz usually provides? If no, where is the best place to gather volume numbers? Thanks!

Domain Name - Which is better?
I had a friend of mine ask me this question and I didn't really know how to go about answering. He wants to know if, for example, www.cardealer.net is better than www.car-dealer.com or vice-versa? Both seem to be interchangeable to me. I hate websites with dashes in them but obviously it is necessary in some cases... ".net" is not my favorite either. What would you recommend?
