I've got a website promoting local resorts - Xresorts.com
(X being the location of course).
It's only been live a few months and isn't doing a lot yet, but it's indexed and has a little bit of juice and popping some commission into my pocket.
I recently acquired Xaccommodation.com
which I'm building at the moment and will include Resorts, Holiday Houses, Bed & Breakfasts and Hotels etc.
My question is "what's the most effective way to move the resorts juice over to the accommodation?
My options:
Domain Redirect-
Xresorts.com
to the resorts page onXaccommodation.com
quick and easy, but I think a bit of a waste.301 Redirect the
individual-resort-name
pages toXaccommodation.com/resort/individual-resort-name
Link from
Xresort.com
homepage toXaccommodation.com/resort/individual-resort-name
. SoXresort.com
still exists and brings in traffic, but instead of homepage links pointing toXresort.com/individual-resort-name
, they point toXaccommodation.com/resort/individual-resort-name
.
Xresorts.com
is registered for another year so it seems a shame to waste it.
a. What do you think will push the most juice to the new site?
b. Does Xresorts.com
become a 'doorway' page and risk penalties with option 3 (even option 2 possibly)
I'm thinking 2 or 3 are the best options ... with 3 being the more 'risky' version ... what do you guys think?
