    Hai Friends,

    I have decided to buy an old domain which is 5 yrs old and it ranks first position in google for the main keyword, moreover the domain is going to expire within a month. But i have also bought a new domain one month back targeting that keyword. My doubt is that when i buy the old domain whether it will be in first place in google if i redirect from that domain? or it will disappear in google search result?

    Waiting for your reply?

    It 'll remain at older position. As it contains the keyword in domain name. Isn't so ?

    Never redirect a domain that has good standing and traffic. Why mess with it ? Better to redirect the new domain to the older, established one.

    Totally!

    Why chance messing it up?

    Two separate sites are better than one.
