Multiple domains - multiple sites - single brand
The norm:
audi.cars.com
chevy.cars.com
ford.cars.com
My idea:
audicars.com
chevycars.com
fordcars.com
Have a separate homepage for each sub niche, but link to the other sites with the main navigation. This produces the feel of a regular website, but offers the opportunity for each domain to gain its own unique SE status within its niche. Each domain will have forums and reviews for products in the sub niche. After some decent traffic comes though the site, I should be able to make a little money from affiliates.
Pros:
easier to target a single sub-niche
one domain will drive a significant amount of traffic to the others.
Not putting all my eggs in one basket
Cons:
significantly less traffic to one domain
slower to realize potential rankings
Can anyone add to my little pros/cons list... I don't really know how the search engines would handle this scenario.
Thanks
