I purchased a domain for a new website without realising it had been previously used for adult content and thus was on several blacklists.

I since have purchased a new domain and pointed the old blacklisted one to the new one as it still has lots of traffic

Can doing this push any of the negatives associated with the old blacklisted domain to the new one?

    If you are getting big traffic, is it from people expecting porn?

    If so, then there may be a ton of backlinks with certain anchor text
    that you don't want to be a part of.

    Not to mention that people who want porn are not the kind of
    people you probably want at your site. Just saying.

    Sell the domain to some porn guy who needs one.

    Or, go into the biz!

    That is a very good question, I'm very interested in seeing the responses.
