iMan, a while back I experimented with dropping freesite mirrors on different domains in the hopes of getting some small SEO perk. The effect was null.

In general, I find it much easier and simpler to just keep all my freesites and mirrors in a single folder on a single domain and keep track of all my pages in a spreadsheet.

Since I treat each freesite as an independent entity, all contents are allocated to it's respective folder, and after submission is left alone. If I must make a change/substitution, I refer to my records.

And as MrYum hinted at, be wary of hotlinking to your own images across multiple domains. Preventing hotlinking from other people across all those domains while creating exceptions for your own is a real pain.|shocking|

Well...yes and no...

Most do require that the content at least be hosted on the same domain. If we didn't, some of the nefarious types out there would hotlink to others content
sure, I can see why the same domain would be required. That makes sense, but this was the same domain.

Hmm.. so Google figured out that they were still doorways?
Did you keep everything except the recips the same?

I personally prefere to have the content at a central place, but whatever works. All I'm saying is that it seems strange to deny listing because the pics are not in the same exact dir as the site when it's still on the same domain.

yeah, I wouldn't do it accross domains... just within the same domain.
Anyways, I'm just using 1 domain for now

Only recips, copyright notice, and 2257 url changed, but the sites weren't unique enough otherwise for google, msn, or yahoo to be loved. It was a lot of work and I saw no significant benefit.

I get far more attention far easier from the big three, especially google, when I re-write the text on my mirrors to read something a little different.
