BLOG, Sub-Domain or NEW Domain???
-
Hi,
I have one online store using 2 differents domain:
http://www.filtrationmontreal.com ( french language)
http://www.furnacefilterscanada.com ( english language)
A language switch at the top right of the store, give you access to a different language when shopping.
I had to do this because, my shopping cart does not offert the possibilty to have a multyi-language store!
Now I want to create a blog. What is my best option:
-
2 blogs with sub-domain. ex: http://www.BLOG.furnacefilterscanada.com and http://www.BLOG.filtrationmontreal.com
-
one multil-language blog with a new domain linking to my online stores
I would appreciate your advice on this.
My goal is to increase traffic, rank better and increase sales by providing solid content on a blog.
I will use Word-Press self host. I will buy a premium theme. I purchase themes from theme forest before.
Do you have a favorite theme to suggest?
Thank you for your help a support.

not possible!

Is it possible to have your blog as a subdirectory? That is generally considered to be a better strategy than using a subdomain, because subdomains are treated as separate sites in most instances.

Duplicate Blog Content
Hey Mozzers! I have a client who is a dentist, with multiple offices, and wants to use an identical blog post (including images, alt text, text, tags, everything pretty much) from one of his office's website on his other office's website to save time and mimic the success of the original content for his other office. Everything I've researched says this is a HUGE no-no, but I'd love to hear if anyone else has tried to do something like this and if they were successful in doing so (implementing rel=cannonical or 301?). Also, if he is the owner of both sites and they both receive low traffic will Google even notice? My biggest worry is that if I did post the content on his other site, identically, that it would dilute the visibility of the original post, which has and is continuing to surpass our organic search goals... The main goal though, is to drive traffic to BOTH sites via organic search using the same content. Would love to hear everyone's opinions if this is possible or unrealistic... Thanks! -D

Best practise for domain redirect
Hi guys. I have a client that has one main site, with the domain IMOWOOD.PT (Portugal), and then we have the domain IMOWOOD.COM (redirecting to .PT). The problem is (that i verify using site:imowood.com) in Google, apeears that the domain .COM have a lot of indexed pages! This will penalize the 2 pages right? Because the duplicated content (?). What i want to know is... if i have 1 domain (the one i want to be index) what should i do, to do a proper redirect from the .COM to the .PT, making the .COM not indexable? Right now the .COM only redirects @ index page. Dont know why... I've used the domain redirect @ my cPanel. So... whats the best practise for domain redirect? Thanks!
