Google will crawl it. It's not really a different "type" of domain. It's a normal run-of-the mill domain.. you can just as easily type "www-" as a prefix to anything. It's still a .net domain in the end.

So again, yes Google will crawl it. But if you were expecting any non-linked traffic to the site (ie if you wanted people to type that into the address bar), I'd recommend a different domain. It's not imperative to have the keywords in the domain name, imo.

Good luck.

I'm heard of webmasters doing this, however I've yet to see a site rank number one using this format. I would just aim for a different domain name, try to use hypens. Remember, you don't "have" to have your keywords in your domain to rank #1 for them. I can show you countless search results of competitive keywords with none of those keywords in the domain name.

Good luck competing with Eniva

Though I would guess by the question you are probably trying to help Eniva SEO more.
