Is it fesiable to register several domain, and have them re-direct to your website, to increase traffic?

Example - store selling magic toys
Register Domains - llovemagictoys.com, magictoys.com, magic.com etc, have all these re-direct to your main website.

Will this help to increase google ranking and traffic?

Thanks Smile

I know when I bought my domains, I not only made sure that I bought the .com, but the .net as well. On top of that, I also purchased all the phonectic spelling/sounding domains, thinking that when some people type in a domain name (sometimes from memory) they will spell it differently. I then have all of them pointing to my main domain. How well does it work? I don't really know for sure, because I don't know if there is a way to tell if they came by typing it in spelled as my main domain is or by using one of the other spellings. But it also makes me feel a little more secure in the fact that no one will use a similar sounding domain and possibly get a sale that could've been mine.

Just buying a domain and redirecting to your site has no value in increasing traffic. Search engines rank and catalog pages and content, not redirected web addresses.

Hi Duffer,

I * think* that URL's that redirect to other domains were invisible to search engines at one point. I haven't checked up on that recently though. You also have be careful with owning a lot of domains and using them to give each other links and back-links to artificially raise page rank. Google don't like that.

For good natural search traffic, its better to read a lot about SEO and optomise your sites.

I attended Google Adwords class last year that they placed emphasis that it is a negative to redirect.

I have 6 domains pointing to my site which are serving no value to me except for seasoning in length that the domains are live.

My webmaster indicated that leaving them there for a couple years would be valuable once used, but that could be so he can continue charging me a fee monthly for the redirect?

you probably need to create an index.html for each one domain name and put all the related keywords inside it about your main site or the products that you are selling with links all targetted to your main site and that will surely help. make sure those index pages are not exactly the same or duped pages.
