Split up my domains or pile it all on one?

outwest · 10-10-2011, 01:26 AM

I have a new construction employment website lets say

forklift drivers,
the I also have some for backhoe drivers

High rise crane operators would be another

All have completely separate chains of kws obviously
also
I will soon have some more job sites in this niche

Should I just pile all of them onto one domain? so that the cumulative effect of all the backlinking /site age/PR etc will be pointed towards one large authority site? or split them up

benefits or disadvantages to doing this?

i would separate them and have them more organized and more targeted. this way you do more work but you get more targeted traffic to each section of your job sites which i think is most essential.

Honestly in the end I cant see how separating them gets more traffic in fact that means you have to do way more backlinking, whereas if they were all on one site the main domain would get the benefit of ALL the backlinking, passed up to the main domain , in some form

however
the risk is if the site gets deindexed you are screwed, but if you had 5 sites instead of one who is to say google wouldnt find a footprint and deindex them all

I think this would save a bit of time backlinking wise, then again maybe not
(combining the domains to one big authority site)
