A Good Domain Name

I wouldn't assume something is true by just looking at Google's top 10 results. There are too many factors involved.

I never assumed anything. It was just an observation of the results which ranked high without the keywords in the domain name.

I never said anything about yahoo because as most know goole and yahoos link counting structure are very different. Also because it was my understanding that they both have different algorithms and yahoos results would have no bearing on googles results. I might be wrong but it seems like a sound theory.

PR is a whole nother bag of bolts thats why I didnt bring it up.

I think my post might have been misread because my whole point of posting about those sites was to say that although having a keyword domain might help give you a boost it is in my opinion not more important then having relevant back links with targeted anchor text. Like the links that I posted.
