Masked Url Forwarding

Do the search engines dislike it?

[andre]

Hi

Does Google and others dislike masked url forwarding?
I intended to set up 4 domain names as subfolders in
the one account, and used masked url forwarding to direct
to the relevant folder.

However, I've been told by some that SEs don't like these
and won't index them?

True or myth?

What will you use to mask the forwarding?

Also are you planning to promote the 4 url's or will you just use them because they relate to the other domain, or is brand names?

[andre]

Each domain name has a dissimilar content. I would want to
promote each site through Google.

Not sure as to what I would use to mask them. If I go this
route, then my webhost would do it their way - no scripting
necessary from me.

It depends how the URL is forwarded or aliased, you need to find out how your host plans to do this.
