Thanks! I remember searching on many different keywords on Google's Keyword Tool, and I was amazed at the high number of searches for so many long tail keywords. I would check to see if they were registered, and to my amazement, many times, these long tail keywords weren't registered...and with such high search volume to boot. Well, did I get a good schooling when I realized that one had to refine the results as "exact" in order to get the most accurate picture of the frequency of a specific keyword's search volume for the previous month. Dumb mistake! Thanks for all of your great insight Elliot. Great info Elliot. Thanks!

I use this method often. 1. Unless you love the keyword term .com, don't bother unless the average search volume is over 1000. I have tracked some of my hand regs and most don't get any type in traffic or revenue but no reason that they wouldn't sell for $200 or $500 or even a $1000. Not a bad mark up for a hand reg. 2. Do the search for the keyword you like. Sort by alpha, average search, est CPC etc then click on the .txt link and notepad will open up with all the keywords in the order to chose. Copy and paste those right into Godaddy's bulk search and hit enter. You do not need to remove the spaces or enter .com, Godaddy does this for you then tells you all the domains that are available for hand reg. GREAT way to invest a few hundred bucks and you might just make it back with one sale. 3. Rinse and repeat :-) Great post. I use this method often.

The less competitive, the less searches are necessary, as it's more likely a nice mini-site will rank well. Care to quantify your personal rule of thumb for searched “frequently”?
