Mulitple domains for one website

    I have a website on the co.uk domain, e.g. www.example.co.uk. I want to buy a com equivalent (www.example.com). If I point both domains to the same host will this cause any problems with the search engines? i.e. will it be decremental in any way, such as flagging as duplicate content?

    Thx

    Just have the .co.uk forward to the .com. Ive never heard of that raising an issue, rather ive heard it to improve listings.

    no effect if you are forwarding the domain but if i were to do that, i wouldnt, its just a waste of money, you can benefit more by setting up two sites with the two domains instead of having one for both.
