    "." and subdomaining..... good for SEO? is it hacking?

    Let's say that one of you own www.cars.com

    Surely you would be receiving a lot of traffic and would be paying another person to chat for you on this forum

    But I want that name too. So I try the another way to receive traffic to my site, so I build a nice site and upload it to MY domain called:

    http://C.ars.com ("C" is subdomained)

    If I were to set SEO the EXACT way that www.cars.com has done and use the EXACT techniques, would I be listed in the search engines?

    Or do search engines entirely concentrate on the main domain (- subdomains)?

    I have read on this forum (2004) that subdomains are better than folder names. So would the ranking be like this if you typed in the keyword "CARS)?:

    1. www.cars.com
    2. www.cars.com/cars
    3. http://cars.cars.com
    4. http://cars.cars.com/cars
    (example site):


    5. http://C.ars.com OR 5. http://www.CoolCars.com

    Which would come first in ranking if all sites had the same content including SEO settings?




    Any advice would be helpful.

    Ok, i found out SOME information about subdomains. took a while to find it.

    trying to figure out if

    http://bookstore.com has the same seo as http://B.ooktore.com


    I guess no one knows the answer, so here something of the sort is:
