New domain for part of your website
- SEO |
Is it possible to set-up a different domain for part of your website.
We have an event coming up and we are discussing the pros and cons of setting up part of our website for the event, with pages connected (for example domain/event-name/section-1, etc.), or having a unique domain.
I've been told we don't need to create a brand new site, we can just have a new domain for that part of the website (so the example above would change to eventname/section-1, etc.)
I'm assuming this would involve redirecting pages to the new domain - unless there's another way to do this?
What do we need to be careful of if we do this? I.e. I'm concerned about things like duplicate content issues, and how this could effect the site's performance in search engines. I'm also concerned about losing the value of having those pages and the traffic to our main domain URL by redirecting people.
