Welcome to the Q&A Forum

Thanks for your reply, in this case it's a webshop, the about us and contact ware just as an example. Did I understand your reply right if I say  I have to create seperate (webshops in my case) in order to avoid getting penalized? Kind regards, Jason.

Thanks for your response, the new domain name will be purchased and used exclusively for the German store. I will try to obtain both with and without the umlaut, but the first only if responsibly priced.  (since the domain is just for ranking purposes)
