I guess if there is not much competition the name of your site will definately help , i started latexclothing.com.au two days ago and today it is on the second page ! i just thought it was interesting how quick it appeared and yet i try other stuff for some other sites and i never see them anywhere on google !

Like you said, it's about competition.

I have often found that for exact match domains in uncompetitive industries can jump onto the first page within a week or two without much more than an index page and link or two pointing to them.

These days, lack of competition plays a big part in which domains I choose to develop first. It's much easier to get traffic (and cashflow) with low competition niches, even if it's not the big dollars, which is much better than outlaying quite a bit in order to rank well in more competitive industries even with exact match domains. Often it can take many months to get any traction in more competitive industries. So that means it takes months to see any ROI.

I'm actually starting to think that the domains that I bought in the highly competitive industries (credit, law, insurance, accounts, etc) despite reasonable search volumes, might not even be worth the effort of developing at this point.

In google.com.au for non-competitive keywords I've found it really really easy to get to page 2 quickly.

Even without a good domain name, just putting up a really targeted post on an existing Wordpress blog, including getting all the SEO stuff right, title tags, proper permalinks (URLs) etc, I've had pages up on Google within literally 5 minutes - only possible since the Caffeine update.

However, getting some of these to take the next step to page one seems to take 50 times the initial work!
