Numerous domains?

By redirecting or mirroring domains.. the only benefit you will get is if someone happens by the other they'll get sent to the main... Search Engines actually penalize you for doing so... especially the hand edited ones... Your best option when having numerous domains is to put up a unique site on each... they need to be physically different .. as well as different content... (even if its not drastically different, at least semidifferent) .. Otherwise you will only get the benefit of your "main" name.... the others are pointless... The only time i recommend the use of duplicate or redirect domains is when you purchase a "miss spelled" version of your current... ie: (just an example - don't know who/if these are owned) www.its-the-millennium.com is correct... however millennium is often miss spelled .. so I would also get: www.its-the-millenium.com... for those who do miss spell it that way it gets to you.. Like me.. millions of people out there are lousy spellers! :lol:

Ok...I cancelled the mirroring. But I still own the domain name. This brings me to my next question. What part does the actual name play in search results if any? If i had come across a better ..more topic related name for my site..would it be worth changing the old site over to the new domain and renaming the site? I run a hunting related website and thought up a more theme related name for my site that begins with the word "Hunting" versus the old site that begins with a non-related hunting term. Would it make a difference and if so would it be worth the change. Thanks again... I can always count on you guys. Hawg

domain names mean a lot. especially keyword-keyword domains. always add the - because google doesn't recognize _.

I didn't realize google didn't read the _ ... Thats another thing when choosing domains tho... If you have a site: www.bite-me.com chances are .. you will feed the site: www.biteme.com .... I use to get most of my business from a company who had bought a domain name with dashes in it.. and left the undashed one available .. tsktsk... ... thats another one where I'd use the one that I would buy both with and without dashes and use a mirror off of the one that will benefit you the most... if google will read bite-me.com better .. then make that your main with biteme.com the mirror... My head is spinning.. did that actually make ANY sense at all??? :lol:
