Default Quick domain keyword question

I have been reading about keyword domains, and I was wondering: would examplewebsite.com be the same as example-website.com, or is it no good to put a hyphen there?

yes, I think both are same value interms of search engines crawlers but not for the users its difficult to remember the hyphen domains compare to non hyphen domains, So I prefer without hyphen domain names

From what I've learned, keyword based non hypen domain has better weight in Google's eyes than with hypen domain.

Yup, exactly.

Try Google "digi photography tips", with quotes.
And notice the domain name, it still rank with hyphen is there.

Hyphens are fine - they actually help differentiate between words. Some combinations can cause confusion.

I recall:
penisland.com

Pen Island
or
Penis Land
