Today I asked a company who were trying to sell me advertising out of interest why they set their whole site up and used:
KEYWORD-surrey.co.uk instead of KEYWORDsurrey.co.uk (which is just parked @ 1&1)
I thought this was very strange so I asked why - the reply I had was:
The URL format was a conscious decision by our marketing experts because KEYWORD is our primary brand, which we will establish and port to other areas in time.
So their basing this hyphen as an advantage for people searching for KEYWORD in Google?
Doesn't seem logical or right to me..
