Web Targeted, a Utah SEO firm, has a new home at SEO.com. The new domain wasn’t cheap. The purchase price was $5 million. Dave Bascom leads Web Targeted and has been reported as believing this domain name will help to give his company an edge in the fiercely competitive world of search engine optimization services.

There is no doubt that some web surfers looking to learn more about search engine optimization will blindly type in SEO.com. A great domain name is only a part of the equation to garner a true web presence. It’ll be interesting to see if the high ticket priced domain actually pays off for the company.
