Hi everyone,

I know there have been a lot of changes with regards to how Google ranks your site for keywords.

I have some really good domain names that include keywords and I'm not sure what to do with them any more. Does anyone feel its worth pointing them to a site to improve listings anymore?

Interested to hear your thoughts!

I wouldn't point a whole bunch of domains to a single site. If you have a good keyworded domain I would knock up a small site to compliment it.

well when i started getting into web design (don't ask how long ago!) I bought a load of location based 'web design' URLs and also some that are brand based.. not sure they're worth anything really! although nice though :)

Maybe just create some small one page sites for each domain, cash in on local searches.
