    Hello Guys,

    I want to redirect my olddomain.com main page to newdomain.com but I want the inside pages of olddomain.com such as http://www.olddomain.com/directory/content.html to remain as it is. Basically I need to point the main page of my old site to my new site but I want the rest of the site to remain where it is. What is the best way to do this with minumum search engine rankings loss ?

    Thanks in advance for all your assistance.

    Try using meta refresh with a delay of a few seconds linking to your new site saying you moved.

    He's correct, that's the better way to do it.. some reason I didn't think about it.

    Cheers, +rep :)
