Need wisdom from people that know things about google and seo

Hey guys, currently I have a website with a www.url.com domain, however I want to build more websites for free. I was wondering if domains like www.url/blogspot.com or www.url/wordpress.com show lower in googles SERP's thank just www.url.com domains

 

You can get any url ranked for any keyword if you build enough quality backlinks. The problem with your proposed strategy is that you could lose some of your link building strategies such as directory submissions and some profile links. You have the option of making it a subdomain (blog.url.com) or a directory (url.com/blog/).

 

If you're using someone like GoDaddy and have signed up for a dedicated IP, you can run multiple sites under your 1 IP (assuming the total traffic for all of your sites does not exceed the max bandwith and maximum disk space for your hosting package).

I have a dedicated IP at GoDaddy with Deluxe hosting (it's like $8.95/mo for dedicated IP+Deluxe hosting) for a site called www.example.com. I can also host the domain www.example.2.com under that same IP without paying any additional hosting fees by placing the www.example2.com web code in www.example.com/example2 folder and specifying www.example.com/example2 to be the root folder for www.example2.com. I can do this for as many sites as I want as long as I don't exceed my monthy bandwith and don't use up more than my allowed maximum amount of disk space.

 

it doesn't matter what kind of site.. as long as it is SEs friendly and well optimized..

 

Thanks everyone, i guess I'll try to build some new websites with "subdomains"

 

you can still rank using that url but the problem is most of the visitors are not preferred a subdomain url.

 

building blog on blogspot gives a little boost.

 

do you mean url.wordpress.com and url.blogspot.com?

Cause I have never seen a Wordpress or Blogspot hosted site rank in the SERP's. If you mean what you actually wrote...then why would you want wordpress or blogspot in the domain name?

 

trosquin obvious he was using wordpress or blogspot as an example instead of listing what his actual sub-site would be. As for wordpress and blogspot never being in the rankings, then obviously you don't do very many searches. There are many well ranked blogs on both of those networks.

 

Well this get to my next question, what free website hosting and sub-domain website should I use? Anyone with any good experiences with any?

 

While I myself have never tried to create a long term website with free hosting I am sure that it can be done. It is not so much what type of domain you use as it is how you SEO that domain and market it.

For example, I have created many smaller websites using various types of domains over the years focused around my niche markets of interest (health and weight loss). However, only recently (within the last 6 months or so) have I decided to find a good keyword in the weight loss niche and create a more long term website around it. To me, if you want to create a website that offers really great content and that will rank well in the long term then you need to go with your own domain and hosting.
