Hello, My website ranks on page 1, I am wanting to change my domian name. I propose to 301 redirect every page on my website to the new domain - which would be on a new IP. Eg. oldwebsite.com/dir/file.php?arg=this to newwebsite.com/dir/file.php?arg=this How long will google take to update my indexes and will my site fall in the ranking? Cheers
you don't need every page just add an index.php file to you old domain and add a php 301 redirect to the new domain and that is! The other method is using .htacces, just do a search in goolge about 301 redirect and you will find a solution. Google like 301 redirect there is NO problem with that
