Hi warriors,
Nice to see you again- i always get my best answers here

I have a domain, which has been removed from Google (not a quality site- original content but not well made)

I am taking the content, editing it into a new domain. The orignail site has a good amount of links to it (over 400)

If I 301 the old domain to the new domain, will the links juice from the old domain be redirected to the new one?

Would like to to hear from anyone who as done it before (BTW- the new domain is established PR 2 with good age and content)

    Hi Paul..

    I have done this same technique before and it works well..

    if the new domain has the same site structure as the new domain, then a simple 1 line in your .htaccess file on your old domain will redirect everything across to the new site..

    Code:
    redirect 301 / http://www.yournewdomain.com/
    Eventually (read as many months later) all the old links that pointed to your olddomain will now count towards yournewdomain.com

    So its definitely the best way to do it..

    Take care and hope this helps

    Bruce
