Nice article, and predictive copywriting is certainly worth doing. It’s worked well for me in the past …

@ Malte – I didn’t advise people not to register a keyword domain. By all means, get good keywords in your domain (especially under the circumstances you mention).

The point is that it is not essential and that brand-able names can often be better long term – But I’ll leave that discussion for the domainers.

Also if you put a trademark in your name, the trademark owner is likely to snatch it back, with all of your links.

Take for example: http://www.google.com/search?q=predictive+copywriting

Donna and I don’t have any of the keywords in our domains, yet we both rank for predictive copywriting (the article itself was an example of predictive copywriting)

Hope that helps

Good post, definitely more than a “page filler” haha!

But why do you advice people not to register a keyword domain? If you know about a trend no one else (in the SEO sphere) does yet know about and expect it to be around for a longer time (way longer than the 2008 Olympics) why not get a keyword domains?

@ Sean Maguire – I remember Storm, there is one in California named Dallas Raines.

@ DD – Thanks for the compliment, you can call me clever all day.

@ Paul Robb – You should publish about it predictively then.

@ Dana Lookadoo – You may want to move East, unless your blog is about history. Thanks for the Sphinn!

Thanks to everyone for kind words.

I really like this idea of “predictive copywriting”. Your name is a bit special, too

I know, don’t you just love that fabulous play with words. Very clever indeed. And really, just highlights the cleverness of the post itself.
