          We have 5 domain alias of our existing sites
          All 5 domain alias are domain alias of our main site. It means, all domain alias will have exactly same site and contents
          Like

          Main domain: www.mywebsite.com
          DomainAlias: www.myproduct.com,  www.myproduct2.com,  www.myproduc3.com
          And if anybody will open our site www.myproduct.com, it will open same website which I have in primary site

          what can i do to rank all website without any penalty....i s there any way?

          This is domain alias of in hosting industry

          Thanks

            Ramesh,

            As EGOL said here, if you could "manufacture rankings" by tossing up a thousand domains then everybody everywhere would be doing it.  It's just not a  tactic that's worth undertaking today.  Put your efforts into main domain and focus on RCS and that will take you much further.

              Hi Ramesh

              There's two clear choices here:

              Either you redirect all of the URLs to one main URL and try to rank that website.  This will result in only one site ranking, but no risk of duplicate content and Panda penalties.

              Or, you give each website its completely unique content.  And that doesn't just mean rewriting the written content of the main site - you should try and give each domain as much unique value as possible, so it is quality content in its own right.  In doing that, you will stand a much better chance of ranking all 5 websites.

              Also, take care that you do not link the 5 domains together on every single page.  A few links might be OK, but having too many links could constitute as a link-wheel, which would also see your site penalised.

              Hope this helps.

                Linking from & to in domains and sub-domains

                What's the best optimised linking between sub-domains and domains? And every time we'll give website link at top with logo...do we need to link sub-domain also with all it's pages? If example.com is domain and example.com/blog is sub-domain or sub-folder... Do we need to link to example.com from /blog? Do we need to give /blog link in all pages of /blog? Is there any difference in connecting domains with sub-domains and sub-folders?

                Onsite SEO vs Offsite SEO

                Hey I know the importance of both onsite & offsite, primarily with regard to outreach/content/social. One thing I am trying to determine at the moment, is how much do I invest in offsite. My current focus is to improve our onpage content on product pages, which is taking some time as we have a small team. But I also know our backlinks need to improve. I'm just struggling on where to spend my time. Finish the onsite stuff by section first, or try to do a bit of both onsite/offsite at the same time?

                When should you redirect a domain completely?

                We moved a website over to a new domain name. We used 301 redirects to redirect all the pages individually (around 150 redirects). So my question is, when should we just kill the old site completely and just redirect (forward/point) the old domain over to the new one?

                Is it safe to redirect our .nl (netherlands) domain that we have just purchased to our .com domain?

                Hi all! We've recently developed a German version of our website with German translation and now we have just purchased a .nl domain, but with this one, we want all of the copy to remain in English. Is it ok to redirect our .nl domain to our current .com website or will this give us bad SEO points? Thank you!

                Is it safe to 301 redirect old domain to new domain after a manual unnatural links penalty?

                I have recently taken on a client that has been manually penalised for spammy link building by two previous SEOs. Having just read this excellent discussion, http://www.seomoz.org/blog/lifting-a-manual-penalty-given-by-google-personal-experience I am weighing up the odds of whether it's better to cut losses and recommend moving domains. I had thought under these circumstances it was important not to 301 the old domain to the new domain but the author (Lewis Sellers) comments on 3/4/13 that he is aware of forwards having been implemented without transferring the penalty to the new domain. http://www.seomoz.org/blog/lifting-a-manual-penalty-given-by-google-personal-experience#jtc216689 Is it safe to 301? What's the latest thinking?

                If you have an unlimited SEO budget, what would you do?

                Here's a bit of background information: I've achieved the targets and is now being offered what is essentially an unlimited budget. I have a nice list of ideas but thought I would the brilliant people here at the SEOMOZ community what they would do. So as to promote as much response as possible, I'm going to keep my list to myself for now. And by "SEO", I mean I can do things like content strategy, blogging, infographics, etc. Shoot away!

                New Site: Use Aged Domain Name or Buy New Domain Name?

                Hi,
                I have the opportunity to build a new website and use a domain name that is older than 5 years or buy a new domain name. The aged domain name is a .net and includes a keyword.
                The new domain would include the same keyword as well as the U.S. state abbreviation. Which one would you use and why? Thanks for your help!
