Smile Site Migration Question

Hello,

I have a globally accessed (with UK bias) site with a .com domain name. The site is expanding to include country specific content. The plan is to use the domain name.com/uk for UK specific content, .com/us for us specific content and .com/au for Australia sprecific content and do a geoIP redirect for the specific country of access.

The problem I have with this is that the .com domain name would not exist as a standalone landing page. Does anyone know if it would be better to have a generic landing page that retains some generic content to preserve the indexed content and 'link juice' or if it's ok to do a redirect from the .com according to country? I'm thinking it would be better to retain the .com domain and have a 'country selector' option??!! Any thoughts greatly received.

Thanks,

Rob
