A name I wish to register is a multi-term name. Question, by example:
"dresshatsearch.com"
The top 4-5 serps (Google/Msn) reveal that these URLS have static listings with Yahoo/Dmoz which I could not acquire for this particular business.
The serps above, with the exclusion of the top #1 for both engines, contain "hats" within their URL but not "dress". Note that these Yahoo/Dmoz paths have "hats" only and not "dress".
I am trying to determine (A) my potential chances of attaining top results for searches on combined term "dress hats" without Yahoo/Dmoz (B) and if the extra term "search" within the URL will lower my chances at this, by diluting "dress hats". [internal links within the site will have to have all terms, such as the index link throughout] (c) Any thoughts on hyphenating or is this on its way out?[" hats search" is important to a lesser degree]
