I've got a nice KW in a profitable niche with enough exact local monthly search volume to effectively monetize it, and the .org, .info. and .net TLDs are all available. I'm thinking that the .net will be my best bet here, but I'm wondering if I should grab the other two domains, and 301 them to my money site. Alternatively, I suppose I could get all 3 domains and attempt to rank them all. Here are the SerpIQ stats for the KW I'm targeting. Any guidance on this would be much appreciated.

It's harder writing content for 3 sites than it is for just 1. Pick a domain and get started. This is a really minor part of the whole process which doesn't deserve so much thought.

I'm finishing up the content for my first EMD now, just trying to flesh out ideas for the next one. Planning on buying content for my next domain, so it shouldn't be much more difficult to populate all three domains if it gives me an advantage and I can rank for all three. I just don't know if it's worth it to try for 30% of the front page listings or not. The keyword I'm targeting next gets less than 1k exact local searches/month, but it's in a profitable niche.
 
You can pick any of those EMDs. .info works as well. Tested it a couple of times and what nots.

If you are planning to 301 make sure you have those EMDs on different hosting accounts. Because it will give you more linkjuice like that
 
I just took a brand spanking new EMD.org to PR 2 and Google pos. 11 in less than a month I think I have 100 backlinks or in that neighborhood.

.orgs easier to rank ?

Must be the honeymoon period, what will happen when the honeymoon is over and I have a PR 2, I wonder if I will stay put ...

That's a fast rise, I hope you can continue it.
Have you ever heard anything about ranking .org.uk TLDs? I've read lots of information to the effect that TLD doesn't matter as much as it used to, except when it comes to selling a domain...it's hard to know. I suppose ultimately I'll be posting a case study for ranking a .org.uk...
 
If you know for a fact that you will get a decent amount of traffic and and more importantly, be able to monetize it then pick them all up.

Or just play it by ear...take the .net or .org and if you start getting momentum, then pick up the others.

Hope you kill it man!

Thanks. I'm just getting started with all of this, so "killing it" may be a little much, but I'll feel like it's a success if I can achieve a positive ROI and learn a few things to apply to the NEXT site...
 
Google doesn't have a bias towards any of them. Ranking a *.info in less than 6 weeks (SERPIQ of 46)
*.com's may look more attractive to users.

Buy them all and use Blue Hat SEO-Advanced SEO Tactics » SERP Domination ... Adapt that, build a small 3-4 'site-link-wheel' with each domain.

Cheers.

Thanks for linking me to Blue Hat. I read this a while ago and had forgotten to bookmark it. I really like the intense, methodical, THOUGHTFUL approach he espouses, as opposed to just throwing things against the wall and seeing what sticks. I've read about a dozen of his posts so far, and I've been more impressed with each one. Also, the post about remnant ad inventory was excellent. +rep for reminding me about this blog.
