I noticed when i looked in Yahoo I had some very "tasty" backlinks to an unused subdomain. I re created the sub domain and put a 301 redirect to the domain. Now the link has disappeared from backlinks on both google (webmaster tools) and yahoo. The links are showing in my AWSATS. Will this return or should i take the 301 redirect from the subdomain and just place a link on the page to the domain. I would like to use these backlinks as they are really natural.. Sam
