Hi,

I'm building a multilanguage website consisting of two language nodes:

Israel
Japan

The Israel country node has three language versions:

Hebrew
Arabic
English

The Japanese country node has two language versions:

Japanese
English

Now my question is what strategy to follow concerning the domains:

register two for each country a separate domain:

www.energypartner.co.il (Israel website)
www.energypartner.co.jp (Japanes website)

Or register only one domain: www.energypartner.co.il and have url's like this:

www.energypartner.co.il/il/he (Israel - Hebrew language)
www.energypartner.co.il/il/ar (Israel - Arabic language)
www.energypartner.co.il/il/en (Israel - English language)

www.energypartner.co.il/jp/ja (Japan - Japanese language)
www.energypartner.co.il/jp/en (Japan - English language)

I'm especially wondering what's the best stratety concerning the domains, from an SEO perspective.

Thanks a lot for your advice,

Anthony
