Greetings, I have a question about addon domains. The hosting company I am thinking about using writes: "When you create an addon domain, it will also create a subdomain. This is necessary for the domain to be properly added to your account. The url for the addon domain will still be www.addon.com, not subdomain.domain.com." Won't think give me two ways to access the addon website: 1) www.primarydomain/addondomain and 2)www.addondomain.com And, if yes, won't this penalize me in google for duplicate content? Thanks for the help!
yes, it will give you two ways (three actually) to access the domain, but you won't be penalized as long as you don't submit both urls
Yeah in fact shouldnt he put DENY subdomain.masterdomain.com in his robots.txt? Just as an extra precaution.
Hi, Even if you do not submit a URL to Google, it could find a link to it in an indexed page. To make sure there is no duplicate contents problem, I use this .htaccess in primarydomain.com : Options +FollowSymlinks RewriteEngine on RewriteRule ^addondomain\/(.*) http://www.addondomain.com/$1 [QSA,L,R=301] Code (markup): Jean-Luc
