Default Teach Me How To Do A Permanent Redirect To Retain SEO juice

Okay so I started SiteA in May and now have some of the pages as PR2 and the domain at a PR1. I have about 40 articles in it. It is published in Wordpress. When I first started SiteA, I was just going to make it a micro niche site but now I want to make it an authority site. However, the domain name for SiteA sounds really spammy. So now I want to use SiteB as my authority site because I love the domain name and I want to use Joomla now. So what should I do?

A) Should I delete all my content and place a 301 Redirect to SiteB?
B) Should I just copy all content from SiteA and place a 301 Redirect to SiteB?

How should I go about this so that I can retain most of my link juice?

Also, do I have to do a separate redirect for every one of my articles?

Redirect Old domain to New domain (htaccess redirect)

Create a .htaccess file with the below code, it will ensure that all your directories and pages of your old domain will get correctly redirected to your new domain.
The .htaccess file needs to be placed in the root directory of your old website (i.e the same directory where your index file is placed)

Options +FollowSymLinks
RewriteEngine on
RewriteRule (.*) http://www.newdomain.com/$1 [R=301,L]

Please REPLACE www.newdomain.com in the above code with your actual domain name.

In addition to the redirect I would suggest that you contact every backlinking site to modify their backlink to point to your new website.

Note* This .htaccess method of redirection works ONLY on Linux servers having the Apache Mod-Rewrite moduled enabled.
