[quote=Head Boy]I've just been reading this interesting thread on Search Engine Watch which made me think about the use of hyphens.

1 hyphen doesn't hurt, in fact it's better in certain domains as it shows both words better and SE's pick up both.
People would see ask-tech.com faster than asktech.com or
webbs.com wouldn't be Web Bullshit like web-bs.com would.
Words with 2 or more hyphens tho I don't like..
