Question about registering a highly searched keyword domain

[Trickac14]

Ok I've got a keyword that get 60,000 + searches a month. It is a 3 word domain. With this type of search volume would it be smart to register the domain with hyphens as the .com without hyphens is taken but the domain like three-word-domain.com is not taken. Also the .info is available without hyphens. Is it worth it to register both? Thanks in advance.

Focus on total monthly EXACT searches are not BROAD. Also check the average CPC. If it still maintains a decent search volume and you plan on developing it, then yes. If you are planning on buying it to sell it, then no. A three keyword hyphened is tough to sell IMO. A two word it's a maybe.

Yes, I always focus on exact and yes, this is for developing and getting search engine traffic. I can hardly sell a one word domain, so selling a 3 word hyphenated domain would be near impossible lol. Thanks.

reg the .info as long its not product related

Hyphenated names are worthless in most cases.

Yea but were looking at the keyword in the domain to develop it for SEO. Type in dog training in google and you'll see the number one ranked site has a terrible long hyphenated domain but I bet he isn't hurting.

Then I would say yes.

I will stick to the .com even if it means having the hyphen around. I think in terms of SEO, the hyphen and non-hyphen will not have much difference but what is more important is on how you build your backlinks later part.
