In my opinion, it's always a good idea to have a domain name that is somewhat self-explanatory, unless you've already got an established brand. Still, there's a balance; you don't want to be too lengthy.
For example, "talkingparrot.com" is a lot more memorable than "howtoteachyourparrottotalk.com."
I would say it is extremely helpful and beneficial if you have the keyword phrase or search keyword terms in your domain name to get high ranking on the search engines. It helps a lot. But again, the name should make some sense to the users.
I have always liked to buy keyword domains and I have always achieved good rankings without much effort. Although, it’s really not important to have keywords in your domain. It depends what techniques you choose to go for to achieve ranking success.
Choosing a domain name that is a SEO friendly is very important,, if your domain contains your core keywords, your SEO campaign is also helped. many people try to visit the website by entering the keywords in the Url. this will help the domains which contains the keywords
It is very important to have search term keywords included in the domain name and especially in the metatag of your site. But it is very important that you need to avoid using the keyword twice in the content. This should work for your site rank to come up in search engine as long as your site has a good traffic.
A domain with keywords is really important but its analogous to having a gun without any ammunition. You should give appropriate consideration to other factors like page content, internal linking, site structure, Page titles, meta tags and most importantly value of the site to it potential visitors.
I personally did some experiments with this matter. I developed a dummy site with an appropriate amount of keyword density and used a totally keyword based domain. The site ranked well initially (3rd page google) and as the time went by its ranks dropped. Now its buried some where in google.
I think that you are right about how you have to consider all of the factors when you are putting a page together. There are so many bases to cover. It's not just one thing or another.
From my experiences keyword rich domain helps a lot in topping Google search results. Also it does help with SEO if someone decides to mention your website on some forums by providing simple link like www.seoforum.net, for example. The link itself contains the keywords you are going for.
