Your question is a little unclear..

Better for what ..

If you forward the one site to the other it will either just be combined or not be read, so it wont help anything..

Your prob better off just using the "click here"

That way you can optimize one domain for one set of keywords and the other domain for another set

yeah I am kinda tired.. after I wrote it I was like huh? hehe

I just have a domain called mountainvalley and another called amountainvalley

amountainvalley is the real name. I want to know what is best for google. Is creating an exact mirror of the site for mountainvalley grounds for banning or doing a click here page to view the site or java script to just do a forward (this I believe is the worst route)

Hope this is clear...

Do NOT duplicate the page that will get you penalized/banned for duplicate content.

Have a single php file on domain.com and domain2.com named index.php and inside do a proper 301...

PHP Code:

header("HTTP/1.1 301 Moved Permanently");
header("Location: http://www.domain1.com");
exit();

301 one to the other

It's probably better to develop both seperately and use one as a feeder for SEO purposes.. If not for developing, and it has existing traffic then do a 301 Redirect.

probably use .htaccess to 301 redirect all pages of 1 domain to the other...

**MGPspots** · 11-21-2005, 04:26 AM

yep definitely use 301 redirect

anything else could be viewed by G as spam
