Multi-domains pointing to main web site

Impact on SE's for mult-domain linking back to one site?

[sergemann]

I am new to web design and web publishing. I have a b&m company with a web site in an industry where having a web site is not a must, but definitely a plus. My web site, which I update and edit myself with MSFP 2003 (not the best, I know), does not have the best SE results. I am contemplating buying up to ten domain names, building one to four page deep web sites with links back to my main site. I plan on using hyphenated web addresses that are direct hits on commonly used SE queries. Such as cars-for-sale.com, my main site is something like abcautosalesusa.com (example, not a real site or my site)
My question, does this work? Can building multi-sites with one goal to get people to my site or to call my phone number work? Will I get a higher ranking in the SE's this way?

Its called a mini-net I thinks.....

You would probably be better off working and building links from sites in same type of industry.

Doing what your proposing can get you penalized by google...it has been done before on an industrial scale....

1. Problem 1 all the domains would need different registration details etc. as google checks this stuff....google see`s domain privacy on reg details - raises red flag...

2. All domains would need to be hosted on different account/ different servers. Google can spot this too if all regged to same person and on same server. Red flags you.

If the keywords you are after are not competitive it could work, for a bit...you would probably be better though developing content on your first site around these keywords...

Only my view, somebody with more experience in area might tell you how its done properly.

Thanks, that is very helpful. I haven't bought all those sites that I was going to do that with, so you saved me some money.
