Domain Name -- Does It Affect The Traffic I Get?

There are many things that affect the quality and quantity of traffic your site gets. But, does a domain name have any effect on these? Yes!
First and foremost, if your domain name is outrageous, unique, memorable and thought-provoking people will remember it more easily. You could also get a lot of direct traffic from the viral effect that such names can have.
Second, it does help to have your domain name on the subject of your site. Yes, there are many successful sites with names that have no bearing whatsoever on their subject. However, you make it easier for people and the search engines.
Making it easier to get people to click...
If you were searching for "high quality computer parts" which of the following sites would you click to (Assuming they are equal on all other fronts)...
High-quality-computer-parts.com
And...
Ruskeateal.com
Now I just wrote these names from the top of head. But I think the point's been made. Give yourself all the advantage you can.
Furthermore, there's evidence that search engines do score you a little higher if your primary keyword is part of your domain name. But doesn't it make sense?
Even though I recommend that you put a lot more thought into your domain name, do remember that it is NOT the most crucial element in generating free and residual to your site. It's just a little extra that will add its own bit. Don't expect a poor site on all other fronts to get all the traffic in the world just because of a great name.
Therefore, make sure you're getting every bit of the traffic puzzle right. The power is in getting it right in many fronts.
