Hyphenated Domains

[domain]

There is much debate as to whether or not hyphens in domains really make a difference in SEO purposes. What is everyones thoughts on this? Personally I dont think google really cares whether a domain has a hyphen or not.

Yes it is good to use hyphens in domain name.But you can use if it is needed.For example if your are checking availability for domain name Facebook.com and it is not available but you need the name.In that case you can use hyphens and select domain name like Face-book.com.But don't use more hyphens it's does not looks good and can't easy to say and remember.

I don't think that it makes a big difference for SEO, but for offline marketing I think its preferable to have a domain without hyphens.

It will not make a big difference but Google will give first preference to short domain name without hypen in SERP. If we can't get short business related domain name, then we can go for hyphenated domain.

Please don't use hyphenated domains
