I have an 8 year old site - PR4... time for the new .. i setup a new dot co site with a much better domain name... i'm looking to redirect the entire pr4 site to the new shiny dot co site. i am TRYING (failing miserably) to not lose my 8 year old pr4 traffic and rank by using a 301 redirect using htaccess. These are all static pages on both sites.. yes, apache is setup it seems SO-o simple, but i don't know why i keep getting errors.. .. first it gets stuck in an infinite loop .. and after modifying a few times and searching some more, i can actually find myself directed to the new site with the below snippet - however the new domain name is no longer using css and the url is followed by ten or so backslashes (http://www.newdomain.co/index.html//////////////////) i have looked everywhere on the web and tried all the common redirect/old/old.htm..etc.. methods to no avail... here is the only snippet i have found/used that even moves the old url to the new AT ALL: Redirect /olddomainname.com http://www.newdomainname.co/ any help would be GREATLY appreciated (so frustrating!) thanks for your help - j
