At least, no plural !

 

frenchie, plural isn't bad - its when you mix it in an incorrect way that it doesn't work (eg houses plans).

actually tubing covers both singular and plural for that product - you can have a single length of steel tubing or 1,000 sections of steel tubing.

but, the hyphen kills the value.

Safesys, do you mean that "steeltubing" is much better than "steel-tubing" ? Meanwhile, "steel-tubing" gives 2,754 searches a month, and "steeltubing" nothing !

 

the search engines treat the "-" as a space, so when you search for "steel-tubing" it shows how many people are searching for "steel tubing". when people use word compounds (either to type in or buy), they generally go for the words with no spaces and no hyphen-space substition.

steeltubing.com would therefore be better than steel-tubing.com for resale purposes and would explain why steeltubing.com was registered in 1998 whilst steel-tubing.com was registered yesterday.

hyphenated get good rankings on search engines, so as promotion it would be a good name.

 

domains in search engine promotion play a very small part as can be seen if you go to any search engine optimization site - not to mention that you can use any cctld and also people don't pay big sums for seo domains.

the argument that hyphens help seo and hence give value to the domain is a red herring for domain resale value.

Ah, finally a better appreciation ! Thanks, DomainSage. Meanwhile, I never wanted "A" names, I only was looking for "B" ones, because as says Professor Fizz, all "A" names are taken since long time. Any valuation fork, please...

What would steel-tubing.com website likely to have for contents.
why are u going against esoteric avenues,look at domains which have day to day usage.who would use steel tubing for domain name.the companies which are in this business are established one and they usually go by their company names.those who are in that niche need not go after type-in or other rules which we
domaingazers follow nor these product need introduction like say
an audio book or a new phone service does.

telugu, I think that a generic mirror or redirection domain as "steel-tubing" would help smaller companies (not in first page of Google) to win a better position, and new potential customers. Do'nt forget too that B2B is much more profitable than B2C...
