    i am thinking of getting a reseller account and adding about 10 more relevant sites based on the succes of the first in this industry, but i read that interlinking is a no-no when all sites are on the same class c (i.e. reseller account).

    I would not want to interlink for the purpose of seo. I would only want to use it as a trafficfeeder for human eyes.

    So, if I were to set up 10 different sites and used a jump menu loaded with each site placed on each site, since the se's can't read javascript, would this count as interlinking from search engine standpoint? would it hurt me?

    thanks.

    Actually, I had Googlebot download a .js file the other day. You might want to use a simple redirect script, whose url is disallowed in robots.txt to get the job done.

    Your link: <a href="http://this-site.com/jump.php?url=http://my-other-site.com>My other site</a>

    The jump.php script: 
    <?php
        header ('Location: '.@$_GET['url']);
        die;
?>
    PHP:
    Your robots.txt file for this-site.com 
    
User-agent: *
Disallow: /jump.php

    well, who said that? :)
    I can show you sites with thousands of pages indexed in google (galleries for example) and all of them are interlinked with javascript.
    here's what you can do though - create a function in an external .js file, call it via onClick, then hide the .js in a directory protected by robots.txt.
