Hyphenated domain names
Hypenated names have advantages and disadvantages:
- they broaden your choice. For example, fishinglures.com may be taken but fishing-lures.com may still be available.
- they are often easier on the eyes (that often play tricks): for example, life-with-art.com is clear. lifewithart.com could appear to be Life With Hart.
- makes the keywords clear to search engines because the words are separated.
BUT, hypens are not easy to clarify over the telephone, nor do people instinctively search for hyphenated names.
Solution? Use your own judgement.
