If I create a subdomain on another server to host a minor site of my main site, would this hurt Google ranking?

    Mirror sites are not bad just because.

    There are numerous reasons for having mirror sites, like geographical, server loads, etc. It's a very common thing.

    In fact, for reasons above, it can help your seo. You can steer visitors to the one that will load fastest for them, for example.

    Having the same content at abcrapola.com as xyzipola.com just for the sake of two websites, probably not a great idea.

    But gasbuddy.com has a zillion sites on a zillion domains with only slight variation of the front page.

    You cannot make a blanket statement about mirror sites and bad for seo.
