Do keywords in domains need to be separated with hyphens in order for search engines to read them? Somebody said that you will not have good seo results if you run words together without a hypen.

I love a good hyphened domain and if you have a keyword in there Google seems to love it as well.

Careful though, don't go over 3 or at most 4 hyphens.

Hi,

Search engines can parse out the words whether or not there are hyphens. Many people try and get domains without the hyphens because they think it will be easier for people to remember when they are typing it in, but the se's have no such difficulty.

Sometimes hyphens give different result in SEO so i think better not use hyphens.

Hi,

It does totally depend on your domain name. If your domain contains keywords, then a good practice is to use the hyphen sign between the keywords. Previously, people used underscore signs in their sub categories page, but now hyphen signs are used for spaces in domain names.
