It would be nice to know google views on anything and i suppose we can only guess most of it but to actually validate this theory would take huge amount of research.


I don't wanna go upsetting anyone by posting up examples but there are a fair few about that i have seen here and there.

It could be true but then again what purpose would it serve if a hypenated domain is more relevant to a search than one that isn't.

Edit: just going by one hypenated domain using webmaster tools on Top search queries with positions ranging from 10 to 1.
Theres a fair few top search terms with a position of 1 but then again i'd have to look at the % they appear which is from 35% and below.

I'm not sure if this is anything to go by as link popularity is obviously gonna have influence?
