I don't optimize for LIVE since it's more prudent to optimize for the search engine that sends you the most traffic.

I also don't usually check the serps, I let analytics tell me if I'm improving or falling behind.

That being said I'm seeing something new after taking a look just now and I don't like it.

example.com
example.net
example.info
example.com.pk <---- india ranks 4th in the US because of keyword in uri?

having the uri be the keyword is getting MORE important but keyword + a couple of letters doesn't seem to get the same boost.
