    I would chose the one without any dashes. NET is good domain name extension to invest in

    For search engines I don't think it makes a difference, but for users I think the solid .net is far better than the .com with a hyphen in the middle, the .org is also better but the .net is better than the .org I think.

    I say the dot com every time - a dotcom is worth about ten times a dotnet if you want to resell it

    In normal situation, i would grab none. I will avoid dash in between domain names.

    GO Grab FreeShoutbox.Net now.. It has backlinks of 6800 which is very good
