is it a problem to have the same phone number on two websites in same niche?
For instance if I had two completely different websites for one painting contractor client. All the content is completely different other than the logo and phone. It is in the same niche for "spokane painters and spokane painting contractor" .. will google see the same phone and penalize?

Thanks Guys... apprieciate you help. Sometimes a guy just needs to hear things from other people:
btw... callcentric has the cheapest forwarding numbers. I have 4 or 5 right now. there only 1.95 a month. and a penny a minute or something like that... thanks again

Yep, it could just redirect to the original number anyway and i'm sure very cheap to set up.
A separate number will also let you track phone calls from sites, so you know which site is generating more leads which is also helpful.
that is the better bet so mark his comment as answered, not mine

I agree with Irving. Honestly, the better bet might be to get another number / forwarding number. You might be able to do an image on your own website, but think about all the Yellow page listings you you would have on the web with the same phone number. Keep it simple. Get another number for that 2nd business.

Not really recommended, you're only supposed to have one site representing the same company/niche.
Put the phone number in an image on the secondary site.

Canonical Homepage Multi-language Website
Hello, Our development department is building a multi-language webshop.
On-Page Optimization | | X-com_Maasbree
Due to the multi-language module that they've used, we have example.com and example.com/nl having exactly the same content. In order to avoid duplicate content, those pages have the following canonicals:
1. example.com -> Canonical to example.com/nl
2. example.com/nl -> Canonical to example.com/nl Do I loose SEO-value by not canonicalising directly to the root-domain homepage (example.com)?0 -

Client has 2 websites... won't do away with old site.
Ok my situation is: We have built a new site for a client and they would like to keep both sites working. Should I just attempt to optimize both sites to rank well in their area? Or should I be suggesting a 301 redirect from the old domain to the new? Other options? Thanks in advance
