Linking one website to another without passing a penalty...

Hiya all,

I have a domain for my e-commerce business that I've owned for years. We have an algorithmic penalty against the site, so we are having a new website built, and it's going to be put onto a new domain altogether.

When people visit the old site we want a message that says 'we have moved' or something, and then somewhere to click to take them through to the new site.

Is there a way to have a click-through link mechanism of some type that isn't actually a hyperlink that Google can see? We need a way to get traffic from one site to another, but the link mustn't pass the algorithmic penalty or any bad juice to the new site.

Cheers,

Jim

    What you can do is register 2 domains with your brandname. So one with .org and one with .com)

    301 redirect your old domain to the .org and redirect that .org to the .com.

    This trick has helped me a LOT....it doesn't pass the penalty but it does pass the link juice, so it works in your favour when it comes to SEO...

    You'll even see some of your rankings back of your old site...

      This can cause another type of penalty, redirect penalty.

      I suggest to add the no follow attribute to the link of the new website, or make an image of the new website link.

      It is normal to lose everything, since you removed the redirect, it is recommended to keep the redirect at least a year.

    In another penalized blog, last week i made a 301 redirection to a new site, but only the internal pages, not the homepage. Today the visits increade by 3. I will have to wati 2 more weeks to see if it doesnt get penalized again.
