Of course it can always be edited later, however getting your site properly indexed for the right keywords from the beginning is essential. It’s ideal if you have not purchased a domain at this point. If you have a domain purchased already, it’s fine. However if not, then you should choose and purchase the domain after the keywords have been chosen.
