    Hello,

    I own a few URL's and have started some sites on a couple of them in the past. Recently I've been working on my latest project and was posting to, Let's say, www.PR3.com an older URL of mine with a PR3. I now have decided where I want home to be, GreenGambler.com. Well now that I have set www.PR3.com to forward to greengambler.com will the PR value transfer as well?

    I'm guessing no, but hoping yes:)

    Thanks

    Use a permanent redirect, and PR should follow.

    This can be done with a .htaccess file if you're on a Apache server

    Of course, i'm not an expert, but this worked for me when I moved domain names.

    Thanks, I'll look into that and see if I can do it. It kinda sucks though 'cause I accidentally parked one of my sites with a PR3. Will that being parked lower or remove it's PR value?
