Question Domain name and keywords

Hi

I have done some reading on the forum and the MS site, but cannot quite find the answers I am looking for.

I have read about domain name keyword density and about human readability.

I am trying to find domain names for a few niches and having difficulty choosing suitable domains.

Ex 1
I have chosen a niche which is globally quite competitive eg airline discount codes / voucher codes, however what users are actually searching for (in their respective country) is eg "Emirates Discount Codes" or "Delta voucher codes"

So I have 2 issues -
1. I can't choose several domains like DeltaVoucherCodes or VirginDiscountCodes - so the domain has to use the generic Airline word. So I do not have a domain that exactly matches what is searched for and will have to depend on page names and titles etc.
2. Discount Codes and Voucher Codes are more or less the same thing and have similar search volumes.

Choosing a domain which includes Voucher loses Discount searches and vice versa.

Combining both words in the domain name dilutes (I think)by making the domain name a broad match eg AirlineDisountandVoucherCodes.com or even longer AirlineDiscountCodesandVouvpcherCodes.com or AirlineDiscountCodes-VoucherCodes.com

Any comments would be appreciated.

Second example with similar issues - targeting a global Market.
Say I want to sell Cell Phone / Mobile Phone Chargers.

Visitors will actually search for Nokia Chargers or more likely Zoom Charger (motorola) or iPhone Charger.

Again my domain cannot match what is being searched for, so I must choose a generic domain.

Plus the Cell / Mobile problem, with regard to which term will the user recognise easier (US/UK/other countries).

So what about a name like MobileandCellPhoneChargers.com

Again any comments would be welcome.
