      Dear all,

      I want to create an additional domain in order to:

      1. Rank better for a very specific keyword with an exact match domain (I already ask about that, but I did not have my ideas clear at the time);

      2. Offer to the user usefull infomation about the topic, without duplicating the content I have in my main domain, just additional and very specific information;

      3. Use this domain as landing page, offering a tutorial on "how to" use a specific section of my main domain, including a video tutorial;

      4. Link to the related section of my main domain.

      So, the main idea is, if an user type in google "this specific keyword of ours", they will have in the results "thisspecifickeywordofus.es", they will click and go to the site, where they will find unique and specific information, complementing what I have in my mainsite, and showing how to use my site, so trying to use it for conversion.

      I want to do only white hat SEO, so first at all, I would like to ask you if you think it is a good idea. The keyword is difficult to rank for, and if I can take advantage of this exact match domain (even if it is nowdays no more so big an advantage), would be great.

      Second, do you see any problem in managing different domains from the same google account? Newbee question, sorry.

      Thanks in advance for your help,

      Daniel

        To your first question - the domain name matters much less than ever so if you have a name you like better as a brand name, use that. Having a great site up at exactkeyword.es won't help you much if any more than having a great site up at notreallyanykeywords.es

        Related just to your second question about managing two domains in Webmasters Tools. We manage about 45 domains in our main Webmasters Tools account so there is no problem managing multiple accounts. In fact, it's very easy when you want specific data to just go to that page, cycle through the domains and find it for each site.
