Recently I submitted this site to Best of The Web directory, and after making a payment my site was soon listed. Unfortunately though, I did not get listed for the keywords I wanted, which is “work at home”. Instead, I got listed as “Gobala Krishnan” because that’s the actual domain name.
This is a clear example of why you need to have your main keywords as part of your domain name. A lot of the major web directories are still human edited (or at least human approved) and they will not allow words or promotional text that is not a part of your domain name.
If you already have a blog using your own name or a non-keyword name, there’s nothing much you can do about it. However if you’re starting a new blog, it’s really worth the money to get a proper domain name. Read my post about getting premium domain names as a guide to snap up great domains at cheap prices.
