Russian - Plural or Singular?

[mgrohan]

Are singular or plural words better for Russian domains?

Have come across a few where searching in wordstat - Yandex. One form will have the high wordstat score and the other version will only have a score if it is partnered with another word, by itself none.

Is it safe to always target the word showing the highest visitors/searches on yandex, or the one returning the most results (which is difficult as the search engines return all related forms of a word).

It depends on the word. Don't trust Yandex, it is not literal.

Check Google, Yandex, Rambler, and US Ovt. Then, trust your instincts.

PM if you want.

Yeah, seem to be in over my head with Russian. So many forms of the same word. Thanks for the offer of help via PM, i might take you up on that at some stage.
