domains or sub-domains

obyapka · 01-03-2007, 03:12 PM

Hi,

can I seek some advice regarding googles liking of domain names.

I have plans for some websites, related themes, but I need to know whether google would prefer separate domains to index, or would it index sub-domains to the same extent?

i.e. say I want domains like blah-qaz.com, blah2-qaz.com and blah3-qaz.com - think of blah like you would football/baseball teams. This would cost me $x per domain. However blah.qaz.com, blah1.qaz.com and blah2.qaz.com would cost me just 1 domain name, but how would this be dealt with by googles searchbot? (about.com is a good example)

I would hope to link all these domains together under one umbrella so that each site is interlinked to the others. Would my sites be penalised for interlinking?

regards
Brian

Using subdomains will let you use whatever you want keywords which is good for SEO.
