    | Where should I ask this question? Hey folks, I have a question regarding: Domain forwarding, specifically... forwarding a traffic domain to a LIVE website. I am wondering about the BEST way to do this and... Is it a good idea (generally) Are there drawbacks - in relation to search engine indexing, ranking etc. Other stuff I should know? I guess I just asked my question(s) - CAN ANYONE HELP?  Thanks, Mike P.S. If you have a suggestion as to where else I should ask this, please let me know! Thanks. |

   | What is your goal for using forwarded domains? It sounds like you're going to want to learn about doing a "301 redirect" if you want the best results for search engines. That would effectively transfer any benefits from the old domain to the new one. A Google search for 301 redirect should return multiple sites with methods for doing so. RJ

| Thanks RJ. Scenario: Have a domain that gets say 50 type-ins per day. Also, have a seperate LIVE website. Is it "okay" to simply FORWARD that domain from my registrar account to my live website? * I am NOT concerned about the (P)(R), ranking or indexing of the traffic domain. * I also don't want my LIVE site penalized. I don't mind looking up info on 301, but in layman's terms, what is the difference between a 301 and just "regular domain forwarding?" > Thanks again, Mike |
