Thank you for you help. I recently set up a website with three related domain names. One is the primary domain name containing the business name and the host's server account is set up for it. A second domain name contains a name related to the owner's name. The third is for the future.
My host suggested I park the additional 2 domain names on the hosting side rather than via the godaddy accounts.
The logs are showing that all three of the domain names are getting visits by the bots. Now i notice that when i do google searches to (hopefully) bring up site, links to all three of the doamin names are presented.
My concern is being flagged by google. any suggestions.
Thank you in advance,
don
If the other domains are not in use then why not redirect them to the main site? A 301 redirect would solve any improper indexing until you have sites for the other domains.
I looked into the 301 and am not sure it fits the situation. I did some searching on using parked domains and below is some of what i red. The marketing purposes explanation is what i want to do.
Parked Domains
Different Domains Pointing To A Single Website
Let's say you own abc.com, but you also own abc.net, abc.biz, abc.org, etc. You want these domains to also point to your same abc.com site so you "Park" them to your primary site. Another classic example for Domain Parking is if you owned one domain such as mycompany.com but for marketing purposes also used other domains like accountingservices.com or autodetailing.com, etc. There's many good reasons for using multiple domains with a single account.
Really appreciate your input.
Thanks!
