Domain redirect

[maxeaus]

OK, so i have few domains that get some good traffic, but they are as good as useless being CCC.coms and similar.

I want to redirect them to one site. How do search engines view this, not that i really care anymore about what Google thinks, but any info helps in my decision.

Instead of redirecting, why don't you do some research and figure where's the traffic coming from and what are the visitors looking for? IMHO

It appears to be adult traffic of some type, but im not able to use that at whypark, and i dont like getting 2 cent clicks at SEDO either, so i figure it's better to redirect it to a more CPC friendly domain.

With a CCC.com that's parked, I highly doubt that you are getting any traffic from search engines, so unless you're focusing on SEO for a developed site, it doesn't really matter what Google thinks.

However, if you don't have a vehicle in place to monetize adult traffic, then redirecting them to another domain probably isn't going to be beneficial at all. You're just consolidating your non-converting traffic into one massive pile of crap, lol...

Maybe you're best bet would be to find an adult affiliate program and redirect all the traffic to their site using your affiliate link.

It depends entirely on how you do the redirect. With a javascript redirect for example, search engines will ignore it and look at the domain as a seperate site. With a 301 moved permanently redirect through an htaccess file, the search engine will realize that the site has simply "moved" to the new location and index it accordingly. Neither will negatively affect your search engine rankings necessarily...
