Hello.
Yahoo refers to my domain via an old name. I've changed hte name and use:
RewriteRule ^/(.*) http://www.newdomain.com/$1 [R=301,L]
Google seems to have picked up on this but Yahoo doesn't. Is there anything I can do to prod things along? Is this the right method in general for changing domain names? I don't want to lose all those old links :-)

Mocara.

Nope... Yahoo does not do well with changing domain names. In my experience, it's taken about a year in some cases for Yahoo to finally show the new domain.

Yahoo and MSN for that matter,will pick it, it may just take some time.
