Fast Google ranking: subdomain vs. new domain

Discussion in 'Google' started by laviolette99, Nov 26, 2006.

    I have a new project and I need too choose the URL for it now. I have many choices but I'm not sure what is the best choice to rank well and fast in Google.

    I have mydomain.com established since 2003.

    I have to choose between: newproject.mydomain.com, newproject.com and mydomain.com/newproject.

    Ideally newpoject.com would be the best thing to do for the project but time is being of the essence, we need to rank as fast as we can for our target words. Would I gain Google trust faster with newpoject.mydomain.com or Google would consider this a new site anyway?

    What do you think would be the best choice?

    In my opinion you should start with newproject.com And immediately gets some high pr backlinks to it.

    how fast do you need to rank?

    If it is fast I would try to find an expired domain name in your niche and start to work with that.

    A new domain will take time no matter what links you get.

    get a new domain and get high PR link backs, that is the best way to improve google ranking,
    subdomain is just your parent domain with another .(dot)

    So, nobody thinks that a subdomain could benefit from the mydomain.com trustrank?

    If I understand correctly, I should use newproject.com and get high pr links right away. Host it on a different c class to benefit from the backlinks from mydomain.com and maybe use mydomain.com/newproject to create landing pages that could link to newproject.com. Right?

    The subdomain will rank the fastest. I would register the new domain and let it age then about a year from now put the content from the subdomain on the new domain and redirect it.

    First question is that your new project is related to your established website?
    If not .. then it is in same niche?

    If both answers are in NO then must go with new domain otherwise choose subdomain or subdirectory. :)

    newproject and mydomain are related and a are in a related niche as well. Should a I consider subdirectory better than subdomain or equal?

    2003 is iffy; it's 2003 that's the cutoff date. it depends when it was established in 2003.

    that being said, using old domains is always better than using new ones.

    in an ideal world I wish that were the case, but if you need serious google traffic, a new domain quite often is simply not an option.
