[SOLVED] 3 languages 3 domain name ? SEO ?

[kwij]

Hello all,

 

I have 3 languages (EN, FR, SP) on my shop mydomain.com with a location detection module. So I have mydomain.com/fr and mydomain.com/es

 

1/ SEO Question

Is it better to keep my configuration or to have one language by domain with redirection to mydomain.fr and mydomain.es ?

 

2/ Technical Question

If it's better to have a redirection to .fr and .es, how to do that ?

 

I have :

mydomain.com (main domain, OVH server)

mydomain.fr (multidomain under mydomain.com, OVH server)

 

I created a multidomain and my FTP is :

/www for mydomain.com & /mydomain.fr for mydomain.fr

Is this correct ?

 

I put the same IP address in the DNS section

Is this correct ?

 

I bought a module "language by domain". After configured it, I generate a new htaccess I have error 404...

Does someone already used this module and know how to configure it ?

Do you have another solution ?

I will add new language in the future, just to let you know.

 

Thank you for your help

Finally I succeeded to make the redirection to mydomain.fr by changing FTP target file in my server /mydomain.fr to /mydomain.com

 

However, I have now mydomain.fr/fr ... Do you know how to change it into mydomain.fr ?

 

Thanks !!
