If you are looking to buy a EMD and one of the .com .net, .org, .info is already in the top 5 in the serps are you more likely to buy and build or look for another phrase?

I'm sure I can rank better than that one but just the fact the searcher will see two EMDs when looking at the top 5 to click may make them immediately assume they are spam sites. But with only one they may just click to the site.

In this one case its
a 5 word phrase with org available
the .info is ranked 5th with a one pager.

.com and .net have no links but have about 5 pages each.

880 Local Exact
$8.00 CPC
33 CI in Serp IQ

Rank 1 is a 36 CI
2 is a 63 CI
3 is a 34 CI
4 is a 29 CI
 


It has little low search volume but on other side it have good cpc... Well why not? Go for it.. Is this your first site? CI is good, with emd you will rank it in no time... How so you plan to monetize and what is your seo plan? Also find additional keywords and make pages for them so you have more traffic... Also competition is good, if there is competition you know there is money to be made.. :)
 
This will be number 4 website. First three failing because of bad keyword search which I believe I have now fixed.

I plan to monetize with adsense and possibly amazon.

Wordpress with Yoast for on page SEO.

Off Page I plan to make about 5 web 2.0s pointing to it.

I bought a domain from go daddy auction( just waiting for it to release).

I'm adding that to ALN network.

I plan on adding links using ALN back to my web 2.0s and money site.

It is a high competition using Google K T.
 
In most cases, if I see another EMD towards the top of the SERPs, it means the competition is pretty low and I'll have no problem beating out their EMD. (Obviously an EMD like creditcards.com is the exception.) It's not really a big factor for me though, either way.
 
I don't care what others have really.

So long as they are low PR (usually an indication of fewer high quality backlinks) and a lower amount of backlinks in total, I'll go for it.

The only thing I might do is check their backlinks at ahrefs and backlinkwatch and see if you can compete pretty easily. Competition in general would be the only thing to make me move on, not the domains of those I'm going to compete against. :)
 
It's 2012, the idea of .com blowing .net/.org out of the water is an idea that's dead. Always try to diversify (your bonds). SO much money is left on the table because there wasn't a .com available...
