Welcome,
I want to move my site to a new domain, but what with old domain?
Well, I would burn this domain if that would not has a great traffic which I do not want to lose.
What solution is best to keep that old traffic as much as possible?
I have twitter account and facebook so that will help a little bit, but there are still people will do not use them.
I will not use 301 or 302 redirections, because I do not want to pass that penalize.
How about redirecting old domain to my twitter account or for example, I will redirect to a imgur picture which contains graphic with new link to the site.
Is that safe?

Also, please recommend me thing which I should make with old domain.
I have to for sure deindexed that domain, what I shall do more?

If the old one cannot contribute, just let it die, I don't see why you are spending any time on this.

Either use the 302/302, or just walk away.

  Like I said earlier, it has a really great traffic but algorythm/penalize I do not receive as much traffic as I would like to get or I as I had ealier.
  
  How about redirecting old domain to my twitter account or for example, I will redirect to a imgur picture which contains graphic with new link to the site.
  
  Again, is that idea safe?
  
  Also would I have to do not catch that algorythm/penalize in a new domain?
  I know that I have to deindex old domain and is that all?
  
  Thanks

It stll have some great traffic and receives a little bit traffic from google (most keywords dropped but there are still few remain).
This domain also receives some traffic from videos which I uploaded on sites like youtube.com etc. and it still generates a lot of new views.

I think using a 302 redirection is too risky...

  Change the videos,
  
  I don't see what you are risking with the 302. It's purposes is to pass value and traffic

  Well I can not simply change the videos, they have about thousands of views and they receive some great traffic from google search.
  
  How you can say that is 100% safe?
  I have searched this board and there are people who think this will pass a penalize as well.
  
  Any ideas?
  
  Thanks

So I can buy a penalized domain, 301 to my competitors? Great!

The epidemic is still going strong.

Stop building sites that you get "penalized."

302? Come on man.

You admit it still gets traffic from google.....

What planet are you people living on?

If your old website is penalized, why do you still need it? People won't visit it anymore. Let's start a new one and just use your Facebook & Twitter as you said to get a few people know about your new one.

Did you even read all the messages in this topic?
I still have some traffic from google, BUT THAT IS NOT GOOD AS IT USED TO BE.
Also, I get thousands of views from videos which I put on sites like youtube etc.
They all have about few milions views so I can not simply delete all and upload, there are hundreds of these watermarked videos with my domain, all generates about 60k views per day.
It is a huge adult site, so that will still receives some traffic even If I will change a domain.

So can someone at least advise me how I can still safely retain that traffic after moving?
