    I was trying to figure out some domains when i stumbled up (www.-7.biz)
    I placed the dash with a -number or -letter e.g -7.biz

    I tried to register it but it didnt allow me even though its available.

    Anyone got any ideas?

    A hash as the first or last character is not allowed in domain names :)

    Hope I helped

    .biz will not let you register any name that is less than 3 characters.

    But this is not the premier reason the -7.biz can't be registered.

    like stated, you can't have dashes at the first or end of a domain name. Were you trying to register from godaddy (just curious)?
