German speaking crowd (Austria, Germany) love hyphens and actually prefer them over non-hyphen domains.

Pattern like: word-in-place .com or place-word .com is ok as there is a market that likes hyphens.

Still, I would avoid these :)

Are there any technical issues or complications associated with using two hyphens in a domain name?

Hi

the questions you are asking don't seem like normal curiosities.

they appear to be robotic in nature.

common sense would apply here.

imo....

First of all, domains with hyphens are for machines (eg. search engines) and not for humans. Imagine someone remembering and typing a domain name with hyphens, makes it worse with multiple hyphens.

That said, It depends on the exact match and popular long tail keyword (with lots of traffic) and quality content, search engine may reward with showing in results.
 

The Rule #1

Do not insult any other member. Be polite and do business. Thank you!
