Dashes Better Than Underscores For New Websites

Posted August 30th, 2007 by John

At WordCamp 2007 Matt Cutts confirmed that dashes would be the best choice instead of no spaces or underscores. He mentined that Google was now looking into it. He recommends sites that already have underscores to leave them, as do I because that would be a 301 redirect nightmare, and for new sites to use dashes.
