Welcome to the Q&A Forum

Thanks for your feedback everyone, much appreciated.  May even print out this page and take to the next client meeting to validate our suggestion!!!

Hi Mozzers

I'm an AM at a web dev.  We're building a new site for a client who sells paint to different markets:

Paint for boats

Paint for construction industry

Paint for, well you get the idea!

Would we be better off setting up separate domains - boatpaintxxx.com, housepaintxxx.com, etc - and treat each as a searate microsites for standalone SEO activity or have them as individual pages/sub doms from a single domain - paints4all.com or something?

From what i've read today, including the excellent Beginners Guide - I'm guessing there's no definitive answer!

Feedback appreciated!

Thanks.

Thanks for the feedback, guys.  I don't think the client has any inclination to contact their existing developer or even knowledge who built their site!  Guess to some people websites just aren't THAT important!  If the consensus is that there's no way to de-list their old site, then I'll have to insist they do make contact!

Thanks again!

Hi Search Experts!

We are just launching a new site for a client with a completely new URL.  The client can not provide any access details for their existing site.  Any ideas how can we get the existing site de-indexed from Google?

Thanks guys!
