What is best?


I wanted to register a name, it is a 4 LLLL,
I found it is an acronym say for example that it is just LLLL.com

The acronym dictionary report it with no hypen
If is search on google LLLL it retur some 652 result and most of the results are not related with the acronym
If I search for LL-LL then google return 2.900.000 mostly about the acronym!

Question, what is best to register?
Would reg one or the other affect the value how much?

The "-" acts as a space in Google I believe. So instead of searching for "AABB" it searches for "AA" "BB", which gives it more results.

Chances are the "AABB" domain will be worth more than "AA-BB" when or if you resell it.

LLLL's in general have a higher value than LL-LLs or any combination of hyphenating...

And whoever above said something about hyphens acting as spaces is correct as far as google is concerned. However, dont go relying on just one search engine, no matter how awesome it is.
