We parked most of our corporatename-dot-whatever in 2003, and have only been using the .com
Now we are wanting to launch a -partners.com, but wouldn't SE rankings be better on an aged .biz? I don't like having to re-explain .biz url to end-users, but we are interested in getting both the .com and partners site ranking well for for corporate name searches. Content should be sufficiently different...
So should I deploy on the older .biz, but register a -partners.com to 301 over? Or would that just furthur confuse the situation and I should just go with a new .com?
Thanks!
The crux of your question calls for analysis of the effects of search engine algorithms, which is the standard diet of the Search Engine Promotion forum.
