My datafeed plan - Chris help needed

[pierrebenoit]

Hi,

I have 20 big shopping stores in 20 domains.
each domain has 250 sites/folder based on datafeed.

What is the best way to put these page in the S.E

Do I need to buy 250 domains and use one merchand per site?

Thanks

[Chris]

I would.

1- Are subdomains can counted as the domains
Example:
I buy 100 domain and I build
store1.domain1; store1.domain2; store1.domain3
store2.domain1; store2.domain2; store2.domain3
...

2- I buy 100 domain and put thematic store ???
(health related, pet, children, home...)

3- I really want to know why your advice is 1 domain = 1 merchand

4- Are datafeed seems profitable today (I need $5000 per month with 250 merchants)??

Thanks

Datafeed sites are profitable... for a short period of time, they all end up banned/penalized eventually. This is why you want different domains, if you don't have seperate domains then when each domain is banned/penalized it'll shut down 10 sites (or whatever) instead of 1.

Are those domains then dead for all time; do you just let them drop and put the site onto another domain?

[Chris]

I don't know what you mean exactly... I just let them sit there though.
