    i am planing to register a domain name for my new site,but i am really new on domain name SEO. for instance, i 'd to put three key words in the domain name, like "best,chinese,art", which domain name is better? www.bestchineseart.com or www.best-chinese-art.com. i personally find the second one(with --between keywords) will get the better related result. however, it seems people dont like the second way, and there are not much site named in this way.

    any comments????

    In your case, I'd go with the latter just to avoid any potential keyword confusion among the search engines. However, I'd also register the former so it can be 301 redirected to the latter.

    I will go for the first choice. It is short and its easy to remember.

    www.BestChineseArt.com - capitalize the fist letter in each word in everything you do.

    Damn I searched for a few domains that would allow better keywords, but they're all gone.
