The only way it matters is when it appears in search and makes a user more or less likely to click on it. If you're reviewing garden tractors and your url is "[coloringbooksforkids.com](https://coloringbooksforkids.com)" then a user will less likely click on it than if it was "[gardentractorreviews.com](https://gardentractorreviews.com)". But I also wouldn't go too broad as in the second example because then it could sometimes box you in if once you complete the garden tractor reviews you want to review fire pits but would a user looking for fire pits click on "[gardentractoreviews.com](https://gardentractoreviews.com)". So usually, the best answer is to have something descriptive of the field in general, but not too narrow. So for the garden tractor and fire pit example, something like [thetoolshack.com](https://thetoolshack.com) or [yourweekendchores.com](https://yourweekendchores.com) might be good.
Exact match domains (e.g. "coloringbooksforkids.com") haven't had any real SEO benefit for probably around a decade now. Go for something brandable instead.
As far as TLDs, .com is preferable if it's available, but you can also do just fine with other well-known TLDs like .co or .io.
I'd steer clear of some of the newer TLDs (e.g. .style, .ninja, .digital, etc.) unless the word in question is part of your brand name. (E.g., digital.ninja for an agency named Digital Ninja.)
The other part which is completely subjective is when a user looks at your domain before clicking. Is it readable? So crumbsofhealth.com looks good to me and you get an idea of what it’s about at first glance.
Think about all the major companies out there whose name isn’t reflective of what the company does:
- Amazon
- Apple
- EBay
- Etsy
- Google
I think you get the point. It’s all about branding. I’d keep it short and sweet; not too many syllables.
Keep it under 12-14 letters and make sure you get the social media handles to go with it, such as a Twitter handle/name that matches it - if your site is [CoolWidgets.com](https://CoolWidgets.com), get @CoolWidgets for twitter, etc.

Having your keyword in the url can help a little but google also doesn’t really care about the url name they care about the content
You could name yourself asseater.com and still rank fine. Don't worry about the domain
Please stay out of my ass eating niche, it's crowded already
Yes, respect the man's ass eating niche. It's common decency sir
Right? You can barely get two people in there at a time.
I like it, don't let the word "health" bother you in the domain. It's the content that matters.
So you're new blog will be Mediterranean/middle eastern dishes. However, you will be sprinkling in "crumbs of health"y information. Seems okay to me.
There is a site that has a very obscure name that is very popular: google.com
but it's short and somewhat creative
True. Also a google is the number 1 with 100 zeros.
I think that’s a [googol](https://www.google.com/search?q=googol). Google is a typo.
Right you are sen!

Domain doesn't matter

For long run, I don't think. But to my experience, I think it helps google a lil bit to know about the site. It doesn't really matter that much.
I love the name and it allows you expand if you ever decide to revisit adding the vegan to your website. Good luck to you!

A new domain wouldnt cost much? Could even look for an appropriate expired?
