Using supporting sites to feed your primary domain requires avoiding identical footprint footprints, especially for a local second-hand retail business.
- Differentiate Hosting & WHOIS: Make sure the supporting domains are hosted on completely different C-class IPs and registrars. If Google connects them through shared Analytics, Search Console, or identical hosting IPs, they may treat the secondary sites as duplicate networks and discount the link equity.
- Build Independent Entity Authority: Don't just publish duplicate inventory pages on them. Treat each supporting site as a standalone editorial or category guide (e.g., one focused strictly on buyer guides for used goods/electronics, and the other on sustainability or local trade comparisons).
- Acquire Local Backlinks: Each supporting domain must have its own direct inbound links from local Turkish directories, local press, or contextual niche forums before you start passing authority via contextual contextual links to your primary money site.
- Anchor Text Discipline: When linking to the main site, avoid heavy exact-match commercial anchors. Stick primarily to brand mentions, topical citations, or naked URLs inside deeply contextual blog posts.

Each supporting website could be handled as an independent authority-building effort.
Unique Turkish content, keyword optimization, technical SEO, relevant backlinks, and local SEO are the key ingredients. Naturally link your main website where appropriate.
I would consider digital PR. Basically find a unique angle of your business, create a story around it, and pitch it to relevant media. If the story and angle is good enough, you will get it published across multiple sources. Make sure it's relevant for the media as well ofc. If you are able to, include relevant stats backing up your story. This way you'll get quality links and mentioned that can actually also direct users to your website
Good luck!
Good luck!

I agree with the point several people made here about giving each supporting site its own reason to exist before you link them to the main site. If both sites cover the same products with similar pages, they will compete with each other and Google may treat one as the main version. I would split them by a clear focus, for example one for a product category and one for a local area, and publish useful Turkish content that answers real buyer questions for that focus. Build a small number of relevant links to each supporting site first, check that the pages are indexed and getting some visits, and only then add a limited number of natural links to the relevant pages on your main site. That slower order keeps the supporting sites useful in their own right and makes the links look earned rather than built only for ranking.

Since it's a second-hand business, you could publish product comparison guides, tips for checking used items and common buying mistakes. That way the sites can bring their own visitors too.
In my opinion to ensure an effective and safe supporting network, your satellite sites must operate as completely independent projects hosted on separate servers without technical footprints or cross-linking between them. You need to build their own search authority using unique, high-quality content before naturally embedding contextual links to your primary store with a diverse anchor text strategy.

I'd give each supporting website a different purpose. Publish unique content like buying guides, product comparisons and second-hand market trends. Build some authority on both sites and add natural links to your main website where relevant. Avoid duplicate content and excessive cross-linking. Focus on making both sites useful independently.

Keep those websites genuine and not just link farms. Make sure that each one has a distinct objective (buying guide or thrifting blog), Turkish content, and its own SEO strategy. The linking to your main site should be done where appropriate, using different types of anchor texts and no common templates, analytics, and servers.
However, don’t count on it too much. Focus mostly on backlinks for the main site: Turkish directories, Google Business Profile, local blogs and news, digital PR, and so on.
