multiple domain name redirecting to same page

is it spamming a search engine

[Navdeep]

hi all
if we submitt two or three different domain names to the search engine and redirect every page to the same home page. say i submitt query.html to SE and then i submitt another page with different domain name www.query1.com/index.html which redirects to query.html.
thus creating 2-3 pages and redirecting to the same URL i.e. query.html. this will generate some traffic but is it worth doing or it is spamming the search engine.

This from googles guidelines:

Quality Guidelines - Specific recommendations:

Don't employ cloaking or sneaky redirects.
Don't create multiple pages, subdomains, or domains with substantially duplicate content.
--------
It is risky and I'm pretty certain that google now ignores meta redirects etc and only follows 301 re-directs anyway.

but some websites are using this statergy to gain traffic, and that too on google like a site called expediat.com.
how will google deal this kind of tricks.

There is no guarantee that they ever will and it might seem not fair now. At the end of the day it is against their guidelines and could result in all 3 of your domains being banned if you went ahead. If you really want to run that risk then it's upto you :)
