Hi is there anyway I could mask a domain and it will show up on google? Or even mask it to an affiliate site and get indexed ---> if I had "lots" of backlinks? Thanks Posted via Mobile Device
I'm not sure what you mean by masking the domain? Are you talking about indexing your page, but showing another URL in the results? Or are you talking about showing your page but going to a different URL? Perhaps the closest I could think of is to use search engine cloaking. You serve the search engine rich content, and then redirect visitors to affiliated referral links only when they come from Google/Yahoo. The penalties for doing this however could be dire. There is a company that was doing this successfully and I don't know if I'm allowed to post a link to them here. Look for SEC Simplified. I used them years ago, and I didn't like them having all the control. They do however have a solid list of IP addresses that needs to be served the rich content (because G sometimes doesn't tell you it's GoogleBot!!! surprise surprise!) Well I won't go in more detail unless I'm sure that is along the lines of your question...
What imean by masking is where u type yourdomain.com and it shows a different one but address bar shows yourdomain.com Posted via Mobile Device
I think what OP is asking is if the forward/mask or iframe a domain name would it rank in the search engines. I have seen it done with keyword rich domain names and (very) long tail search terms and lots of back links, but I do not think it can happen with a competitive term (ie credit cards). I have included a redirect script below if you want to try it and see how it goes. Just change the info, save it as index.php and upload it to your hosting Code: <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/strict.dtd"> <html> <head> <title>Title</title> <meta name="keyword" content="keywords"> <meta name="description" content="description."> </head> <frameset rows="100%,*" border="0"> <frame src="http://www.domaintoforwardto.com" frameborder="0" /> <frame frameborder="0" noresize="noresize" /> </frameset> <!-- pageok --> <!-- 01 --> <!-- 7.0--> </html>
