    The part that I idssagre with is "

    Myth #4: Keyword-rich domain names are ranked higher
    "

    They suggest that EMD is not important at all and that keyword in domain name is not a ranking factor. I disagree. I'm pretty sure that it's still a significant ranking factor.

    Uh....:
    - as Toni said, Myth 4 is still here with EMD
    - Myth 3 - what about schema.org and rich snippets, author rank?
    - Myth 19 - links still count, and only a combination of page authority and domain authority with other (social) signals will boost rankings
    - Myth 23 - give me a break... Google doesn't admit it, but, would they penalize booking.com or amazon? Only to show muscle if they do something too obvoius
    - Myth 33 - same as 23... they would get that massive amount of data just because they can?
    - Myth 35 - of course it will...if done right
    - Myth 40 - we all do it... from the moment we do keyword research
    - Myth 49 - Google frowns when someone ranks for highly commercial keywords - that's where the money is

    OK - a few points you can argue with but it's a good overview of many of the common myths so a good primer for a newbie. :-)
