How many consecutive hyphens can you have in a domain name?

The obvious choice is 8-------------------------------------------------------------D.com

Unfortunately D will become d in a browser URL field.

I mean, there’s nothing stopping you, but it’s a bad idea. You can also call your website aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa.com. Good luck trying to type that out as an end user.

Still, I like that going to the website mentioned by the article, http://a————————————————————-a.com/ , gives you a page trying to sell it to you in the most ironic way.

I’m guessing it’s not intentionally silly.

Possibly the most consecutive hyphens belongs to http://a————————————————————-a.com/

Sixty-one hyphens! The maximum possible, and it still works!
