well we have some url(in keyword) and its effect in seo question

1) Well despite of all debates we have notice that keyword in url does prove to be handy and sometimes prove to be easist way to get in upper pages in serp(some may disagree but we have experienced it so....with proofs)

suppose there is a keyword phrase ..most people in search will use it with spaces ie "kw1 kw2 kw3" .....in seeach engine now the question is

will the url name kw1kw2kw3.com and kw1-kw2-kw3.com has same effect....(we have read that - refers to space for SE)
so rather than kw1kw2kw3 (with no space) it should have matched with (kw1-kw2-kw3.com)...theoritically...

so whats is it truth?
is it perceived that way by SE or it is taken as three diff keywords..ie "kw1" ,"kw2" and "kw3"

?2) Well i have never seen a seo tutorial that says .com is better than .org or .net ..and so on ..or even country domains...

but in reality why is that we see .net ,.org sites less in top in comparision to .com site...for major keywords ..there is always a .net or .org site...for that keyword...

so why is that

thanks

The experience usually entails the combination of multiple areas with file naming being one of them.

Will the url name kw1kw2kw3.com and kw1-kw2-kw3.com has same effect?

From my experience? No. They will be treated a little bit differently in some instances even though the keywords may or may not be bolded in the URI.

The determining factor will be how the search query was entered by the user. I've seen different results based on the query and the URI string.

Well i have never seen a seo tutorial that says .com is better than .org or .net ..and so on ..or even country domains.

Hmmm. Check some of the latest WebmasterWorld topics about TLDs (Top Level Domains). There are some interesting viewpoints on just that subject. :)

Does Google Prefer .com , .net, .org over .biz?

But in reality why is that we see .net, .org sites less in top in comparision to .com site... for major keywords... there is always a .net or .org site... for that keyword.

This is typically by default. It's a natural occurence for certain TLDs to rise to the top. I think the above recent discussion will give you some insight into their perceived value.
