I want to forward a domain. Is it better to forward to a forwarded domain or directly to the destination.?

Question

I have a domain forwarded directly to the destination I want. Would it be better SEO way to forward it to a domain that is already forwarded to the destination......maybe that way I can get double traffic???
example: forward to yahoo.com or forward to yahooo.com - which is forwarded to yahoo.com........which is better for rankings, traffic, SEO, ect. Thanks!

Answer 1

From the perspective of SEO, the number of domains you've got forwarded to a given website makes no difference.

You have to understand that having a domain name forwarded to another domain name is not the same as having a website link to another website. It's two totally seperate ideas.

When a search engine spider is indexing a website, it is looking at that website's *HTML source*. Because there's nothing in a website's HTML code to indicate how many domains are fowarding to it, the spider isn't going to see, or care about that.

Search Engine Spiders will only count how many other sites are *linked* to your website, via a valid HMTL link, forwarding has no effect.

So, putting it briefly, you could forward someone through a million domain names before landing them on the page that you actually want them to arrive at, and it will still only ever count as one hit. It won't count as a single hit from every single domain you forwarded them through, which is what I think you were after.

Incidentally, I have to agree with another poster here who said that you're really better of sticking to "legitimate" SEO proceedure's anyway...Search Engines are getting smarter, and if you don't want your site blackballed, you'll do yourself a favor by playing by the rules.

Answer 2

No traffic will be considered to be created. Don't get banned of your website. Yahoo, MSN and Google are together now and may ban you totally.

Better don't take SEO advice too much and get into spoil.
