Domain length doesn't matter but select keywords which you have to used in the domain with importance of the keyword.

a good rule of thumb is shorter = better. Try to get either a really good short brandable domain name like a 4 or 5 letter .com or something keyword rich that is easy to remember.

short, easy to remember, but it doesn't have to mean anything: take google or yahoo

I think it best to have a keyword if possible. Failing that I would say a catchy name, but then you have to depend on branding.

Technically speaking, there should be no limit in domain name registration but most providers restrict it anywhere from 26 to 67 characters long. Better choose a domain name that is easy to remember and contains your target keywords.

You definitely want your keyword in your domain name, you also want to make the site name easy to remember, especially if you plan on getting returning visitors or visitors from outside of search engines.

The shorter, the better. Domain names also have something to do with site branding and identity. Make sure it's catchy!

I suggest you to do more keyword research. And for choosing your domain names maybe you should only use two words from your keywords. It is more better that people can easily remember your domain.
