104. Avoid using the hyphen or weird extensions in the top level domain as Google classifies such websites as scam.

Google says that if you want to rank even better, always use .com as your go-to extension.
Keyword as a first word in domain name improves click-through rates as it shows the consistency of keyword relevance on your entire website. To improve SEO-friendliness of your website, for the domain name first keep your keyword and then brand name.
106. Write posts with LSI keywords. It can help in bringing in that extra traffic over time.

111. Last but not the least, use numbered lists on your posts, just like we did here. It works great, and makes the reader know just what they can expect. Nobody likes to read paragraphs upon paragraphs online, do they?
