How can I use 3 domains for the same website?

Hi,

I have a 2 year old website. I will give a fictitious name for this domain, for example: mywebsite.ro.
In the meantime I have also got the domains mywebsite.design and mywebsite.site. These two domains are new, they have not been used so they have no history.

When I started researching how I could redirect mywebsite.design and mywebsite.site to mywebsite.ro, I started to have doubts about the possibility of affecting the old domain from an SEO point of view.

Is there any way to use all 3 domains for one site without the old domain being affected from an SEO point of view?

Thank you.

What is the point of redirecting new domains to the old one? What are you trying to achieve?
2 new domains have no links, no power... so it won't matter if you redirect them.

The idea was that mywebsite.ro was not suitable for international customers.
Many are reluctant to access sites with extensions other than .com .net etc.
That's why I thought of using mywebsite.design and mywebsite.site

You may accomplish this easily using domain forwarding through your domain registrar or Cpanel.

No risk of SEO damage to the old site?

No risk since they are clean domains

That's not true.
You will always lose power and juice if you are redirecting from new to old domain, regardless if its dirty clean used loose or dead.
Your SERPs may also be affected for a short period of time.
Depending on the new domains, it may not even get crawled as often too until things are "stabilized"

doing it but just for sake of cold emailing. i uae many fluff domains not not burn main one so sometimes prospects enter domain they get email from. because of that I just linked that domains to site. idk if it hurts but been doing it for months and all seems gucci

Let's say you have these three sites.
You want to keep all SEO juices right?
You would need to keep mywebsite.ro as main site while .design & .site will be 301 across.
However, your issue is that because of the TLD .ro, people are sketchy and you would prefer to use .design or .site as the main
I'll tell you my personal thoughts, all 3 .tlds (.ro/design/site) look just as shitty as the next one
What you are doing is honestly a waste of time.
If you want to look more "legit", go for the .com .net instead.
Back to the main topic
How to do what you want while having .design or .site as the main site

Choose 1 of the 3 sites, and have it all 301 over across. If what you choose isn't .ro as mentioned, you are gonna bound to loose some SEO juice along the way.
There no such thing as a perfect transfer, it's one of the biggest, toughest and hardest bits about rebranding.

Method 2
You could host all 3 sites and it connected to the same database. so you have 3 sites running up, and anyone can access any of the 3 sites on their own respective domains.
Your "current" juices will still all be at .ro since that's was your original site.
So you would have to build .design or .site up.
However, since they don't exactly interlink, there no real benefits of it, you are essentially building 3 differnet sites
Which probably will kill each other eventually, and negatively. So I wouldn't do this either.

The .com domain exists for resale for over $7,000. That's why I chose .design and .site

Method 2 does not seem a good alternative.

I'm thinking of using .ro as main domain and redirecting the other 2 domains .design and .site to the main domain, hoping that the .ro site will not be affected from an SEO point of view.

Then that's fine
although, that won't really benefit you in any way possible.
As your serps will still show .ro etc
The only thing you will do is put confusion to your consumers/clients/customers if your socials is .website/design but it gets redirected into .ro
So at the end of the day, you are just securing 2 more domains
