"." and subdomaining..... SEO?

[MobileDesigner]

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 :smilewinkgrin:

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.
