Looking for advice, one big site or multiple smaller ones?
Long time lurker, first time poster...
Just researching my first IM project and I had a question. Not sure if this is a SEO or straight up IM question but here goes.
Is it better to have one big site that has different sections:
keyword.com
keyword.com/games
keyword.com/tshirts, etc....
or is it better to have smaller separate sites as part of a larger "network" that would interconnect with each other where relevant.
keyword-tshirts.com
keyword-games.com
The whole IM is based on affiliates to different products in each area within a nice niche. It is likely that people looking at one will be interested in another, but not necessarily. All sites would include original review and other relevant content as part of this project connecting to affiliate links.
Does anyone have any thoughts on how the domains should play out?
Initially, I am thinking that having separate sites, that interlink as part of a "keyword network" makes the most sense. The idea would be to keep within the niche, but diversify as much as possible with the affiliates areas... in some ways, starting a brand.
I would love to hear some guru thoughts on this....
Thanks.
