mylongname.com is my main site with all my content. myshortname.com is in a separate directory and treated like a separate webite on a separate host (even though its on the actual same host... its called an "add on domain" at my hosting provider. Each domain has its own directory and login)
myshortname.com has one page, the index.html. This index.html is identical to the index.html at my mylongname.com, except that all the links point to the other domain/webpage. So for example if I have a "gallery" link on the myshortname.com/index.html it will point to:
[mylongname.com...]
Once they click on any of the links on the myshortname.com index page, they will then be on the mylongname.com site from that point on.
In myshortname.com/index.html I have the following line:
<META NAME="ROBOTS" CONTENT="NOINDEX, FOLLOW">
mylongname.com allows robots to index every page.
Will this be considered a "redirect" or SPAMMING by search engines because I'm linking to another site? Will the fact that the index.html file on both sites are identical (with the exception of the "noindex" on the one site) cause a problem with SEs or be considered SPAMMING?
As I mentioned in a previous post, I want this because I don't want myshortname.com to ever show up in a search engine. It is my way of knowing when specific people I tell about the myshortname.com domain visit my site. I want only people I tell about that domain to know about it. That way, theoretically, only the people I tell.. or people they tell will ever know about it.
