    People, will Google ban one of my websites if I set a 403 redirect from one of them to another one? I mean I want to close a website and set a 403 redirect from the domain name to another my website. They cover similar topic but I don't even know how Google determines similarity. I just don't want to lose rating or be banned because of these actions. What would you recommend?

    Well.. possibly to transfer some trust and pagerank juice to another website as well as some visitors of course...

    Google very specifically tells you to do a 301 redirect . Anyhting else would probably harm your site. The link juice get's ransfered with a 301 redirect.

    Damn, it's very late here and I mixed things up. Of course it's 301 redirect, not 403 :)
