Two websites, similar (but unique content), similar domains, slightly different kws

    Hello All,

    I have two domain names that are very similar to one another. What I want to do is create two separate sites on these two domains. The two sites will be hosted on the same server / ip. Each site will feature content that will complement the other site, but the content will be unique for each domain, basically same article topics but rewritten from scratch each time.

    I want to cross-link between these two sites and optimize each site with a slightly different set of keywords, so that the one site will appear for keyword x and the other for keyword y.

    Is there a possibility of a penalty from Google from using this practice, or is this a good way to help build up pagerank?

    Please let me know your thoughts. Thanks. :)
