Hi guys, great forum :) I spent an hour searching for this answer before posting this, so if its under my nose I'm very sorry.

I run a webzine and have 5 different domain names that are common variations/miss-spellings of the main URL.

Currently all of them share the same IP address and point to the same directory on the server.

We are movning to a new server and I have the chance to give each domain name its own seperate IP address, and either put a doorway page for each name in a seperate directory (linking to the main site), or better still, configure it so that each different IP goes to the same directory on the server.

Just wondering; would either option trick the search engines into thinking that there are 5 similar webzines on the net (as they have seperate IPs) and thus give us 4 more chances to attract new readers from the search engines to our site..?
