For those who are able to create an exact match domain, placing a few relevant links and adding some positive content should result in improved rankings.
Partial Domain Match
Similar to exact match domains, partial match domains are domains that include keywords that are to be ranked, yet it doesn’t exclusive have the keyword in the domain by itself. For example, our imaginary steel company Blue Steel would look for domains such as bluesteelinventory.com or bluesteelblog.com, versus just bluesteel.com.
