if it is possible to have 2 domains displayed in Google for 1 web site?

andreyf · 03-27-2008, 01:08 PM

The situation is the following I have several domains for 1 web site (one add-on domain and 2 parked domains). And only one of them (add-on) is displayed in google search engine only. Could you advise, please, if it is possible to have several domains displayed in google for one web site? If not, what is the best way to switch the main domain for web site?

It is possible, but google doesn't like it.

But if I mask the URL you that my domains are forwarded to?

Would you like to make the same content display on multiple URLs. What is your reason to do so, since it has no positive effect at all.

This is TRUE. In fact, you are describing a mirror site which is more than one website with the identical design and content, and would be a serious mistake.

Search engines will penalize you for mirror sites because they are perceived as deceptive ways of trying to get an advantage in search results. What you are considering could backfire and all you have are blacklisted sites (so none in Google).

By blacklisted, it means "Don't index this site... and never come back".

Each of your domains should be for separate unique quality content even if they have similar themes. Duplicate content penalties are no longer for exact duplicate mirror sites, or even just duplicate pages.

A single phrase, sentence, or paragraph can be compared to other sites. Exact duplicates of anything are either mirror content, or plagiarized, so you will be punished. There are some exceptions like writing articles for article directories that are duplicate and intended to be republished. Otherwise, duplicate content should be avoided.

Yea, that seems like a very bad idea. Heavy penalties from the search engines.

Search engines will take these as duplicate content on web, and you my get penalized for that. Just list and promote your main url/domain name and redirect your parked domain to the one add-one.
