Mirror Sites

    Hello all.
    Can someone give me an explanation of a mirror site?

    I have a large web site with 60 or so pages.
    I am thinking that I would like to take just a few of those pages and
    build a separate site under a different URL address.
    Of course I would rearrange the layout somewhat, but in essence, the
    content would remain the same.

    Is this allowed?

    Thanks for any help.

    Mirror Sites
    Multiple copies of a site, usually for redundancy and on different servers, are called mirror sites. Registering such sites can be seen as spam by some search engines, and it wise to let only the primary site be crawled.

    HTH
    Regards :)
