That way you can hold onto rankings as Google flip flops between links and niche authority. Ideally you would want to keep these as separate as possible, different hosts, different analytics accounts, different themes, different writers, etc. “ Reply With Quote #5 baldidiot 10 April 2023, 12:30 p.m. Private Member Depends on the size and competition of the niche. If your site is about cricket betting in Scandinavia, you probably don’t need to be doing a second. It can be a good way to try and smooth out any fluctuations in traffic (and, hopefully, sign ups) but only if you have different approaches. If you use the same theme/layout, cover the same topics and buy the same links then chances are they’ll move up and down together. Obviously, doing this also increases your exposure to a market. So, if you only have two sites and they’re both targeting the same niche in the same country and all of a sudden, it’s banned, then you’ve just lost all of your sign ups. Back in the day of easily ranking EMDs, this kind of thing was all the rage. Bang up a site to target EMD#1, then do another for EMD#2 and so on. Often, they’d overlap or even target the exact same term. “ Reply With Quote #6 apuestasonline 13 April 2023, 4:11 p.m. Private Member It depends on your user personas. You can write about similar stuff targeting the same keywords, but obviously, each site has different targets. If each target is well-defined and makes sense, you will be converting anyways. “ Reply With Quote #4 edgarf76 10 April 2023, 8:49 a.m. Private Member Yes, you can definitely compete with your own websites. Make sure they aren’t carbon copies of each other. “ Reply With Quote #3 dannyx 10 April 2023, 6:13 a.m. Public Member I think there is no problem with this type of strategy with certain rules. However, I think that if the goal is to stay afloat in the rankings with problems with Google this is a medium solution. I’ve thought about it a lot too, and I see better solutions. 1. A niche focused topic in which we don’t have to use practices that can hurt us in search results. In heavily niche topics, links are not so necessary and so we get rank. Alternatively, we can build links slowly avoiding problems. With a niche topic, a gigantic amount of content is also not required, so we can put more thought into it. Making a site in English for keywords such as “online casinos,” “slots,” “betting” and other popular KWs to appear, we need to produce a large amount of content, build strong links to appear in general (if it is possible for such strong keywords, this is an example). 2. Most importantly, independence of traffic sources from one search engine. There are other sources of traffic besides Google that will secure our business in case of, say, a drop in ranking and time to return. “ Reply With Quote
