Default Harley Davidson

I noticed in the recent harley commercials they are promoting the website as h-d.com.au , does any one else have a hyphen related domain? i think ross has a few , mercedes-benz.com.au and mitsubishi-motors.com.au are a couple of other well known brands that happily use them that i can think of

I have HEAPS
my best one I suppose would be
ECO-TOURISM.com.au
Because the Term used the most in news stories is
hyphenated related than the non-hyphenated variant.

I find Hyphenated are NO problems to SEO and as MOST users find sites via Search engine listings rather than typing in the name it is not a problem.

yes i like my 3-d.com.au and i have noticed they are in the search engines, some terms are more popular with the hyphen/dash , three-dimensional is one that comes to mind

I have car-reviews.com.au - I think this is particularly good as Car Reviews is not only a MASSIVE search term but carreviews.com.au is not used.
