Hi everyone, this question has been bothering me for a while! Could anyone please give me there thoughts on this?

Lets say I have a page called "flamingocar.com", and I make a domain at dot(dot)tk that redirects to "flamingocar(dot)com"

I build about 100 backlinks to that "flamingocar(dot)tk". Will these backlinks help "flamingocar(dot)com" rank well in the search engine?

The practical use of this would be to have the ability to change the url that flamingocar(dot)tk redirects to. Say I decided to change my main domain from "flamingocar(dot)com" to just "flamingo(dot)com". I would then retain my rankings. (or so I assume).


:rolleyes: I'm a noob!

Josh


P.S. I appreciate any help I can get!

    the domain IMO has nothing to do with the value of the backlinks

    its more
    1. the PR of the backlinks
    2. the anchor text of the backlinks

    Yeah but thats not the question here, the question is whether the redirect url will "redirect" the backlink juice. Thanks for the reply though!

      Why would you do this? Why not just build backlinks to the original domain?

    So you want to explain to the people why you having clients
    pay you? Or are you going to whine about an insult again?

    I don't get it. Pass yourself off as an expert, take money, then
    come to the WF for directions? At least you admit you are
    a "noob." 'Nuff said.

    That's not an insult, BTW. It's an observation.

      I never said I would charge them money. Learn to read the thread, Paul.

    Short answer is that it's a waste of time redirecting links from a new domain to an established domain unless the domain already has backlinks and/or PR, and/or domain age.

    Ok the purpose here would be to retain the backlinks to the redirect site, but also be able to change the url of the site I am redirecting to.

    Make sense?

    Any info on this?
