two domains same IP address

search engines indexing

[enricogallingani]

hi

let me know about this case:

i have a website listed on google (or other engines), domain name is mydomain.com

later i decide to use an alternative domain (mydomain.org) and i want it shares the same ip address. so if you use mydomain.org/.com you can see the same website.

BUT what happens in google?

in my experience the new "shared" domain (mydomain.org) will not indexed (and that's i want).

do you know some cases of "shared" domains indexing?

the reason i want mydomain.org will be NO-indexed:
to dedicate mydomain.org only for extra-search engines traffic (i.e. business cards).

let me know please!

Google gets a bit confused sometimes. You are right that in the long term, Google will aim to settle down with one domain or the other, but unless you help Google along, you might find one inner page on one domain and the next on the other, which isn't ideal for your purposes.

2 Things you can do (of many ways I am sure):
1) Use the business card domain going to separatye website (same or other server) which redirects the user into the main site (or 100%frame) but use Robots.txt to stop engines spidering that domain.
2) (Best IMHO) is put an error 301 redirect at businesscarddomain.com which says page has premanenetly moved to searchenginedomain.com - this will always stop Google getting it wrong and will get your businesscard user there faster.

Hi,

I have two domains one mydomain.com and another domain1.org hosted in the same ip address. Most of the search engine (Googlebot, AllTheWeb, Inktomi Slurp, Jeeves, Alexa) spiders crawl regularly both domains.

Have you submitted your new domain to google?
