Ok, I have quite a few domains. I was looking at using one hosting account, and having the others as addon domains to it, so that they are treated by a browser as seperate domains. I was wondering, does Google treat them like one big domain, or as seperate domains? I mean, if one got peanalised, would the others be, also? Thanks!
Google will take it as separate domain I have only one hosting account with over ten sites each on a different domain name. No problem on that.
They are treated as separate domains, but it is possible that you may run into duplicate content problems. e.g. Suppose the domain for your main account is abc.com and your addon domain is def.com Then def.com/001.html = acb.com/def/001.html However if is very arguable how big this issue really is. If you are very worried about this issue, you should get a reseller account and use a separate account for each domain.
Using separate accounts does not change the potential duplicate content issue whatsoever. Google does not care if you are copying someone else or copying yourself.
Just simply filter def directories in the robots.txt from abc.com However, I didn't do it, because I check my link at google, no links have been seen as abc.com/def/001.html e.g. Any suggestion?
Yeah, robots.txt would do it? Lol. I've only just started moving things around, but i can't see that any of them have showed up in Google anyhow lol
"Using separate accounts does not change the potential duplicate content issue whatsoever. Google does not care if you are copying someone else or copying yourself." Although this is true, I think most webmasters would prefer def.com/001.html to acb.com/def/001.html should one of these urls be penalized.
Hide it in the robots/txt and google won't even know; and with cpanel nowadays, you can even get different IP's, so google will have no idea they are on the same account!
I do have one account in hostgator where I host multiple domains. I haven't faced this problem anytime. You shouldn't face any issues unless there is a direct backlink (indexed by google) to domain/addondomain/index.html In that case, you could use robots.txt and google will not consider it as a duplicate.
