Ok so i have 3 domains for my site whats the best way to attack this form and seo point of view.


1) Do i upload the site 3 times and just have them as pretty much running as 3 seperate sites.

2) Do i pick my main domain name and have the other 2 redirected with OUT the sites uploaded on them?

3) Do i pick my main domain name and have the other 2 redirected with the sites uploaded on them?

4) none of the above!!

SEO is my weak point when it comes to things like this.....

any help will be much apreciated

cheers

There maybe benefits to this. If each domain name is different, then the keyword phrase in it maybe pulled up in different searches. Giving you three times the chances of getting searched. It would seem this would dilute backlinks however. You'll have to share all your backlinks with the other two sites, probably never really allowing any site to shine.

This is common..
This would have the same benefits as what I said above but not dilute the backlink issue... Promote the main site and reap all the benefits but also add in the benefits of the other two domains.

This sounds like a lot of duplicate content to me, so I'd avoid this one completely.

Personally I think I like #2 the best.

I am not an SEO expert, but I'm trying to think logically here. There's a first for everything right?

1) No if you have the same content that will be duplicate.
2) Good idea
3)Its the same a 2 if you redirect it scratch_one-s_head.gif

do i upload the sites anyway or not ? thats what i am getting at my guess from what said you said is not to upload it more then once as duplicate content is not a goo seo practice.

I wouldn't upload to two sites. I'd just redirect!

Yeah, I don't see the point in uploading the site to be honest. I mean why upload it when you are going to be forwarded to another domain? #1 would be the best option if you were using different content, and perhaps even varied the prices some. That would allow you the chance to get all 3 of your domains listed highly on Google for different terms, and when people search for the best price....they would find 3 companies....all yours....with different prices and content.

Thanks,
Jacob
