Help With Subdomains, Redirects, and Duplicate Content
- SEO |
For example purposes:
Primary Domain: Soccer.com
Addon Domain: Baseballshoes.com
I know each addon domain has to have a sub domain because it is the only way the cPanel software is able manage multiple domain names. Well since my addon domain has to have a subdomain, baseballshoes.com is aliased to baseballshoes.soccer.com . As a result when visiting http://baseballshoes.soccer.com/ I see the same exact page as when I go to http://basebalshoes.com/. Obviously no one would ever know the address to http://baseballshoes.soccer.com/ but in case they did, then what? I emailed BlueHost and all they recommended was creating 301 redirects.
If I don't create 301 redirects is this considered duplicate content? Does this mean for every addon domain I register I have to create a redirect for it's subdomain? What do you guys usually do?
What do you usually put in these fields when adding an Addon domain? When creating a new directory is it always: public_html/ "what your domain is w/ out the TLD ending" ? Like public_html/baseballshoes . And is your subdomain just the same thing looking like baseballshoes.soccer.com?
Thanks for the help, just want to make sure I know what I'm doing.
