Re: Will running an identical website under several separate domain addresses cause SE listing problems/conflicts? From David A on 25 August '00 replying to Re: Will running an identical website under several separate domain addresses cause SE listing problems/conflicts? posted by Tyler >>Hello, >> >>I have developed a product that I think would be an exceptoinal seller as a home-based internet business. I would like to offer my product to a limited number of dealers. My concern is that I will lose interested parties by not offering a pre-built website to go along with the product line for those who can't or don't wish to make their own. However, I do not want to have to build a new website for every time a customer elects this option. Having said this, I would like to License-out the use of MY website as long as it's running under a different domain name. Would this cause search engine conflicts or otherwise penalize all of us if we had the same site on the net selling the same products but under different domains? Would changing title and meta tags make any difference? Would it be noticed by SE's. Any info would be greatly appreciated. >> >>Thanks in Advance, >> >>Tyler > >Thanks Jeff for the very fast and readable reply. I agree with your comments, and will make the necessary changes to my approach. Take care and when I'm up and running, you will be hearing from me again, and yes, I will be expecting to pay for your services without reservation. >Thanks again, >Tyler I disagree. SEs have no way of knowing that the site is a clone if they don't have links back and forth to each other. However if you had a hundred people submitting the exact same site, the first hundred entries of the SE would be identical. Not very appealing for your customers or the end user.
