What are keywords and why do I have to think about them now?

Keywords are how people will find your site! Choosing powerful keywords will boost you in the rankings.

Yesterday you were on the computer Googling something right? What did you type in to find the object of your search?

Example. I want to find out about buying oil paints for artists. So I type in "artist oil paints". There are three keywords in quotes and one darn good key phrase.

• artist
• oil
• paints
• artist oil paints

Now this being said how does it help you choose your domain name? Because people are going to use key words to find your product, your web page or information you have on your site and it will be to your advantage to have them in your domain name because search engines love this. They will rank you higher, give more credence to your site and make your life a whole lot easier.
