Now I just need find a way to change my permalink structure without demolishing my SERPs.

Not only do keywords in the URL help, but their placement WITHIN the URL also helps… for instance, with blogs you’ll see URLs with a format like so: “http://www.thorschrock.com/2007/12/15/keywords-in-urls-do-matter”

It's a good catch to have some keywords embedded in your domains I think. I believe there’s something in the words in a domain name that tickles the reader’s minds just by looking at them.

I don't listen to what people on forum say because often they want to sound clever and only repeat whatever they've read on another forum.
