is adding " - " better than leaving no gaps?

[killaclown]

hi all,


me again. sorry for asking these question, just really eager to learn

is adding " - " better than leaving no gaps.

free-mp3s.com?

or

freemp3s.com?

i dont own the these domains.....so dont if im allowed to ask what which would be worth more?

 

[BFTUK]

I'm no expert but i would say that the domain without the hyphen would be worth more. Assuming that the domains were undeveloped.

if you look here you will see only one "gudun", poker-chips.co.uk

http://www.domainprices.co.uk/

If I was the 1st to reg www.xxxyyy.co.uk,
I would take www.xxx-yyy too, but it's just me,
I like domains that "look" good
not www.teaappleexpressite.zzz

You need both really yourdomain.co.uk and your-domain.co.uk

The problem is the one without the hyphen is often taken first !

remember Wal-Mart regged wal-mart.com 1st in 1991


then walmart.com in 1999 ish

after they got it off of "world at large" !!

yep.. and it won't belong before you need the double hyphen
your--domain.co.uk as well.. already seeing a few uk ones popping up...
spammers & adsense junkies love them.. multi hyphenated keyword domains.. not much cop for company branding though..
