Okay here is a question that needs to be explained to me:
How Does Google handle the space ("-") in a search?
Why is this important? Because when a person searches and types in spaces between words, then I want to match those with my key words with spaces. If my web site and key words do not have spaces, then how will it show up and rank on google?
Here is an eample of what I am asking:
Let's say my web site domain name is
ht&p://homebasedbusiness.com This can be searched by typing in home(space)based(space)business(space). Will google ignore the (space)'s or should my domain name be this:
ht&p://home-based-business.com
The dash signifies the space in a google search. So the way Google handles a space in a search, may effect what my domain name and/or key words should be.
Would it be better to purchase two domain names to link to one web site? Both homebasedbusiness.com and home-based-business.com? This also leads me to a bigger idea of how one might build traffic by capitalizing on googles treatment of the space in registering duplicate domains pointed to one web address. That's what I am getting to with this question. If google ignores (Space)'s altogether, then both the web sites listed above are actually the same domains in a web search engine.
Any one know Google well enough to answer this question?
Thanks,
Tom
