      I have about 1000 unique and organically generated articles. My quote compare business has had briefs submitted by clients for over two years. The content has only been accessible to registered members. I want to polish it ASAP. Is it better to publish the content on the existing website in a sub folder or set up a new website to publish the content and have every article link back to the main website? Content is around 300 words x 1000.

        If you have 1000 unique and worth reading articles instead of just words filling the paper then the advice is to add them slowly on your website (may be by adding a blog section on your website). If you content really contains value and if your content can really help users then you can get tons of link from different root domains to get SERP benefits (obviously you have to push it to the targeted audience).

        Adding it on a separate domain will help your main website get a link from 1 external domain and if you content really is helpful, adding a content n the home page will help you get more links from different root domains.

          So the service is for businesses to submit a brief to request quotes on design projects. The content is their briefs. The content isn't particularly interesting. Some are short some are long. The only value it has is that designers who find it searching around on Google will come and sign up to us so they can supply quotes.

          When I look at competitors in other countries, they have lots of related websites publishing this content and linking back to the main website.

          If the content were published on a different website and each page linked to the main website, is it still only counted as one link from the domain?

            Ok, from the external website what I thought is a one domain contain all the content but if you have multiple domains on different servers or at least different C class IPs then you will be able to get multiple links.

            From your words I guess it will be better host it on external website but make sure that websites should be on different servers or contain different C class IPs

              I am with Moosa, placing it on another site just for links isn't a good idea. But this isn't content that will get links as it is.

              These aren't really articles, but rather requests for services. I am not sure how much traffic this content will bring you but if you want to open it up, I'd still recommend keeping it on one site.
