Find Keyword-Rich Domain Names In 3 Easy Steps
A keyword-rich domain name is an easy way to get a boost in search engine rankings and to get great ad targeting for your AdSense ads. Finding those names can be quite cumbersome, however, since all the “obvious” ones are taken. Here’s a video tip for you on how to find keyword-rich domain names in 3 easy steps — for free!
To summarize what’s in the video:
- Use the AdWords keyword tool (it’s public — no AdWords account needed) to generate a large list of keyword phrases from a set of primary keywords. (You can use any keyword tool to do this, of course, such as Keyword Elite or my own SuperSuggester.) Download the keywords to your computer.
- Open the keyword list in your favorite text editor and remove all the spaces. Copy the revised keyword list to the clipboard.
- Go to the GoDaddy bulk registration page and paste the contents of the clipboard. Check that the “.com” checkbox is checked, then try to register the domains. All the unavailable domains will be removed automatically, leaving you with a list of available keyword-rich domains. Choose the ones you want and register them with your favorite registrar.
That’s it! Simple. Watch the How To Find Keyword-Rich Domain Names video for an example of how it’s done.

Now you’re back on track, Eric. thyank you for a very useful tip and for a very intelligent use for video.
[...] a link I just checked out by Eric Giguere that makes it dirt-simple to find good, keyword rich un-registered domain names, … totally free. Recommended. Share and Enjoy: These icons link to social bookmarking [...]
Thank you so much for this tutorial. Actually it was my pain in a neck
Glad you liked it… someone mailed me, however, to point out that step 2 (space stripping) is actually not even necessary, since GoDaddy’s bulk registration page does that automatically. Had never tried it myself. So now it’s even easier!
Eric
Hi,
Simple but powerful technique. Thanks for sharing

Eric,
The info was good, but the audio quality was horrible.
The audio volume was too low, it sounded as if you weren’t talking directly into the mike, and you apparently hit or brushed up against the mike several times (glad I wasn’t wearing headphones).
In addition, your “P” sounds caused a lot of popping. You probably need a better microphone.

Yeah, I haven’t found the perfect settings yet… lots of hiss when I turn up the gain on the mic, but then it’s low. Guess I have some research to do! Or maybe I should cough up the upgrade to Camtasia 5….

@ Eric: Truth in advertising, you advertised three steps but there’s only two? I wnat my extra step back
@ Johnny and Eric, re sound quality. I listened to the audio again with a critical ear. There is essentially nothing at all wrong with the sound quality … I’m very sensitive to this, had to opt out of a big dollar opportunity recently because the provider couldn’t produce decent sound quality, but I find the audio here quite acceptable on a mid-line laptop with funky built in speakers.
UIt would not be the firsdt time that You Tube gave problems in this way, where an OK recording did not get ’sent’ ok.
Now that i have heard it, though, I still don’t know how to pronounce Giguere … I better strike French off my list of languages to learn.
I’m somewhat new to this so excuse my ignorance.
Are dashes a bad idea?
Are domains other than .com a bad idea?
Is using a trademarked term a bad idea?
Paul,
ignorant6 people are the ones who think they knoww and _don’t_ ask questions … you’re questions are intelligent and on point. here’s my cut, others will have advice too I am sure>
Dashes are a bad idea becuase people won’t type them and search engines don’t always treat them consistently.
Other TLD’s (Top Level Domains) such as .net, .biz, .info are not worth much if you are trying to get people to go to the site by typing in the name … in terms of domain value ‘agoodsite.com’ is generally considered to be worth 10 or more times ‘agoodsite.net’. But if you mainly want specific keywords to show up in search and you can not get the .com then a .net, .biz etc. may still perform well… but if there is already a .com that is active … has asite, they are going to siphon off most of the traffic, so much better to chose another keyword that does have the .com available.
Using a trademarked term directly is often illegal as well as a bad idea … if you could buy, say, mcdonalds.com the trademark owner would come after you immediately and investment/work you put into the site would be lost. Best to respect trademarks .. like copyright they are a notice to the world that the trademark owner has excludive right to the mark.
Best of luck, and keep searching.
Dave’s right on the money with his answers….
