Welcome to the Q&A Forum

It seems to me you had inadvertently jumped 40 or so years through space time continuum in to the future and then continued with your SEO duties using the far more advanced future version of SEOmoz. This happens to me most weeks, so this is not unusual. Now where's my crack pipe?

Perm 301 re-direct all sub-brand sites to www.tire-sensors.com. Keep the old domains as you will still get referals from them for sometime to come. Or you could 301 redirect each branded URL to the new location of that particular brand of sensor on the new site.

Then to target those indiviual keyword terms, when you catagorize the products in order of brand, simply set the url up as

www.tire-sensors.com/suzuki-tire-sensors/product-name

Title tage could be in the form of "product name | suzuki tire sensors | your brand

Hi Phil

From an SEO standpoint and in an ideal world, dealing with localisation issues, it would be preferred to have each country specific site hosted within that particular country. But this throws up additional hosting cost as well as individual link building efforts to each of those domains.

The best way would be to redirect any country specific versions of the domain to the relevant root folder.

For example, if we were to launch hurco in Italy, the preference would be to place the Italian content within a subfolder (i.e. http://www.hurco.com/it/) but also purchase http://www.hurco.it and use a 301 redirect the site to the Italian subfolder. This is done both to preserve your brand assets in other countries and markets, but also to avoid any confusion should a user mistakenly remember your brand but not your site.

The subfolders or portions of the website can be targeted to the local market by way of designation within Google Webmaster Tools.

The general rule I work to in all aspects of life is, if it sounds too good to be true then it probably is.
These types of links are very low quality and your probably sharing the links with spammy pharma, porn, watches and amsterdam esorts links. Don't do it!

For $30 I can get an amazing article written in any given niche, and for an extra hour of my time, could probably promote it and attract the same amount of links! And clean ones at that!
