Using an article directory for SEO
Hi, I want to start a sort of portal from my website. We sell meals for people with health issues.
The portal that people could go to for free would be set up sort of like ehow.com, with categories for each type of diet, and lots of articles for each. I wouldn't even make it live until we had at least four articles for each category.
I hope you know what I mean - it would be great information(we have a registered dietitian onsite), interesting articles, and hopefully would get some attention SEO-wise.
My question is, what's the best way to set it up so it would also reflect well on our main site, so the main site could get some extra SEO juice from the portal? Thanks in advance.

Do you have new site working or you ask what CMS could be best for your type of site?
ASKER
No, I only have the old site working. I am asking what is the best way to cross-link the two sites from an SEO standpoint. If you can recommend a CMS, that would be good, too. Thanks.

Would it be better to have the new site on a different server, and use it to link back to the main site? Or would it be better to have them on the same server?
What is the best way to set two sites up so that the new site benefits the old site in terms of SEO?

try wordpress.
You can host as many sites as you want on single server. The usual problem is to sufficiently isolate them security and performance wise.
I would say wordpress is better fit for your site given brief description than drupal.
