Multiple URls pointing to one site

Lets say I wanted to buy up a series of say 5 keywords as URLS

and point them all to one page

Would this be a disasterous and monstrous faux pas with G and thus a huge cock up?

 

I think it depends on how you "point" them. As far as I know, the way to do this without the risk of a penalty would be to use 301 redirects.

 

Yep 301's and 302's will pass juice without penalty!

 

Ok well I was thinking just using links. Rather than 301s is that not a bit fairer on the customer or should I just be agressive and get the coders to run 301 and 302s?

 

you can do the 301 and 302 from your registrar's control panel

 

If it were me... I'd just build 5 slightly different landing pages and point each of the 5 urls to a different landing page.

It isn't that much work and each of the 5 pages can (read SHOULD) be tweaked for each keyword set.

I've done this where I've even replicated a primary site multiple times and tweaked every page in the site (well, only 5 or 6 page sites so not a ton of work).

If your going to spend the money for the url's... go the extra mile and really optimize it. The payoff will be better and the G factor can work in your favor this way.
