    sorry, you can only redirect the site to new domain but you can bring alone together with the PR
    However, dont worry about that, you will basically get the PR back on the next PR update

    as lifeplayer said you can only redirect the site to new domain to avoid loss of traffic and brand, the PR will come after!

    Yes you can't carry over your PR. But don't worry it will be updated in the next PR if you have good back links to Old one.

    Set up an .htaccess file on your old site to redirect all URLs on your old domain to exactly the same URLs on the new one.

    If you are on linux hosting then you will see domain redirection option in your cpanel . you can simply redirect any webpage to any other . if you want whole url to redirect then use wild card redirect

    You can't move your PR, you can only redirect it to a new domain so that you won't lose traffic.

    you can redirect ur domain however you can't redirect the pr. Yes the redirect pr page helps as google bot visit and index your site.

    I did this and the original, REDIRECTED pages now rank higher in google than the new URLS, as of the Sep 1st algorithm change (before that the new URLs outranked the old ones)

    And its clear they are redirected, google shows them in the search listing with no content, just the title of the new page and the URL of the old page.

    301s don't work.

    Create a .htaccess file, it will ensure that all your directories and pages of your old domain will get correctly redirected to your new domain.
    The .htaccess file needs to be placed in the root directory of your old website (i.e the same directory where your index file is placed) .

    A 301 redirect is the best thing you can do if you have decided to move your domain or your pages to a new location. Not only are you preserving your search results but you are also preserving your PR and Google will not take forever to realize this change so you have really nothing to lose.

    its not possible to retired your site with old site pr, so you have to lose your pr for it.

    It's not possible to redirect the old domain along with backlinks and PR. However, Google will eventually redirect all your backlinks and revaluate the PR if you set a proper 301 redirect.

    If you have the same URL Structure, this small htaccess code at the old domain will redirec all your old urls to the new one.

    RewriteEngine on
    RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://www.newdomain.com/$1 [R=301,L]
    Code (markup):
    There should be no other codes in the htaccess file.

    You can check if everything is redirected right with "header checker". Just search for one in google.
