ciml,

Basically one doesn't need to separate the words for the search engine to be able to identify them.

if you have bluewidgets.html as a file name, the engines will be able to parse it as being "blue" and "widgets" and not "bluewid" and "ets". Now these are not perfect rules for example if you have "widgetsite.html" you can have both "widget" and "widgets" in there even though the 's' really goes with "site". For example if your search for "widgets" brings up www.yourdomain.com/widgetsite.html the part where it says "widgets" will be bold in the green URL below the SERPs (Google).

I hope this made sense. :)
