Multiple domains for one site

by Maro

Hey guys I got a quick question for you. I want to enter a new niche and got a few really good domains but don't want to create a blog for every single one so I thought about creating one blog and redirect the other domains to it.

So is it possible to rank with the redirected domains in Google or will only the domain on which the blog is show up in the search results?

    Yes, it is possible to rank for redirecting domains if Google (or other search engines) find something on these domains that is worth ranking -- like GREAT CONTENT, backlinks to the site, SEO optimized pages, etc. Without any of these, however, I think a simple redirect will not help your main site. If a domain was all it took, web site owners would simply buys lots of domains and re-direct them all.

    Something to add to Steve B's great post: If the niche domain names are really great, really exact keyword domains, then they might get some "type-in" traffic

    - that is, people typing in the "exact keyword domain.com" into their browser which if redirected to your main site would of course give you some traffic from that domain. Hard to tell how much - if they are really that good of domain names then you could put up just a simple site (not a blog - or a blog with static pages) for each one with good on-page seo and see how they do in the search engines and check your stats for how much traffic you are getting to them regularly - that way you can make an informed decision from there.

      Thanks for the tips guys, the content shouldn't be the problem. We'll start with about 15k words of unique content and are working on the SEO part.

      Let's make an example, I don't want to get something wrong:

      Domain A got lots of quality content is SEO optimized and got backlinks, also the competition is weak so it will rank pretty good. Now we got domain B,C,D that are forwarding to A and have the same amount of backlinks as A.

      But what will the Google crawler see on these domains? Will it see the redirect script or the content of domain A, if so is the content marked as duplicated?

      It's probably pretty simple but I really can't decide between a site with redirected domains and several one page blogs that link to the big site.

    You're better off working one site. Forget the others. One domain. Targeted keywords in posts and pages. Then backlink to the posts and pages with relevant high PR sites. That's it. You don't need all that other junk. Redirecting was last year.

    a simple redirect will not do. Either sell these domains or build content on them and use them as feeder sites or become your own competition and sell competing products to what your main site is selling, each way, your visitors will have a choice, but you still make all the money!
