Thanks in advance for the help.
I think that the best way is to use a mod_rewrite

If you guys have a minute to explain how to do that (the 301 in the htaccess) I'd appreciate it a lot.
Thanks!

I did the 301 redirect from an old domain name to a new one and this is the code that i used in the .htaccess file.
Code:
Options +FollowSymLinks
RewriteEngine on
RewriteRule (.*) http://www.DOMAINHERE.com/$1 [R=301,L]

Yep, I agree with NightLinks, best way is with the 301 in htaccess.
Good Luck

A permanent 301 redirect.
