Just curious: Is it going to affect your ranking on search engine (or PR) if 1) you buy a domain from one company and host it somewhere else, 2) the very first page (index.php) has only a line header("Location: xxx/xxx.php) 3) Domain Stealth Forwarding (or regular domain forwarding) Any idea or advice?
Is it going to affect your ranking on search engine (or PR) if 1) you buy a domain from one company and host it somewhere else, No Problem 2) the very first page (index.php) has only a line header("Location: xxx/xxx.php) no content to page - you could go to Supplemental Result 3) Domain Stealth Forwarding (or regular domain forwarding) domain 301 forward could take time (long time) but it can word and will pass PR and most of your links
1) Buying a domain from one company and hosting it somewhere else won't have any effect on the site's rankings or PR. 2) It's better to have some content on the index.php page rather than just a a line header("Location: xxx/xxx.php) 3) Why not opt for a 301 permanent redirect?
With header() in php you can do 301 permanent redirect... as long as you don't try to add any content along with the header p;
