    According to search engine guidelines, 301 Redirects should be used for all pages moved. Do you still have access to the old domain/host? Some hosts offer redirection services.

    QFE. Blinsner is dead on here. If you used the wrong redirect type you're screwed.

    Yes. You need to keep the old domain just for the redirect. If you ever let it go and someone removes the redirect you'll lose any links pointing to it.

    Have had mixed experiences with this, some times the redirects seem to help and old pages stay online in the search engines for sometime and help your traffic, though these days considering sand box and just the time it takes to get a domain coming up in the search engines or with any page rank at all. I would seriuos hesitate to ever move a site from one domain to another unless there is some huge issue.
