Sorry to be dense, but how in the world does that help your primary domain? if MyCloakedSite.com ranks super-well for "high-priced widgets", how does that bring people to MyPrimarySite.com? If redirects are the answer, didn't you just lose the disconnection between the two that the separate domain & WhoIs info created?

Some cloaking software packages use perl's LWP module to grab a page from your primary site (like the home page) and display it under the URL of the cloaked page. This technically isn't a redirect, and since it all happens server-side, there's no indication to the viewer (the human) at all.
