Starting New Blog Site

adultbofh · 07-24-2007, 02:48 AM

Im going to start building my new blog site on my own server.
I was wondering is it better to have multiple domains pointing to different niche blogs?

I was thinking about doing this:
mydomain.com/niche1
mydomain.com/niche2
mydomain.com/niche3

Each /niche site would be a different blog.
Haven't really figured out what I am going to put on the main page yet. Maybe a directory listing to the different niches would work well.

Is there anything better then wordpress?
What blog software do people mostly use.

Thanks

The only problem with that is when you go to submit multiple blogs using that format, say using Twan's Blog Submitter, is that they are going to read as the same blog.

Mydomain.com/niche1, mydomain.com/niche2, mydomain.com/niche3 and so on are simply sites in folders on your domain, not separate websites.

If you want to have different niche blogs on one domain you can use subdomains which would look like this:

http://niche1.mydomain.com/
http://niche2.mydomain.com/
http://niche3.mydomain.com/

That way you can submit them to the same directories, etc. and they will be treated as different sites/blogs.

I found this out the hard way when I started out. Hope this helps.

Most WMs use Wordpress. I suggest you start off with it, it's easy to use and Wordpress has good tutorials for beginners.

Hey thanks for the reply. I didn't really think about the separate site issue. I think I was thinking more along the lines of more pages for the original site and hopefully a higher effective SE rating.

I think it dont really make a difference, but keep the following in mind:

If you make blogs in subfolders you have more interlinking freedom (take a good look at hubpages)

If you take hubpages or reviewsites as an example. they rank pretty high for alot of different keywords since the pages are targetting different keywords.

good luck

You can place the blogs in folders, than make subdomains that cloaks on those blogs so you can submit them to directories. If you link to the blogs from you're mainblog you will still gain benefit from a contentrich maindomain.
