Hyphenated keywords in domain names, yes they do work, but I have noticed a consistent relationship to name, numbers of words and search term.

A two word generic search term (not a business name) that matches the domain name: Google seems to penalise!

The same two words but add an additional term, eg "-uk.co.uk" and you score better.

A three word search term works and is not penalised.
