Increasing one site by redirecting from another

    Hey guys,

    I have a few domains that are getting enourmous search traffic but the content is gone (server disconnected). I am thinking of using the domains to redirect to one site I have just started.

    How should I redirect all these users from one domain without getting penalized from the search engines.

    Thanks

    301 Redirects. You can set them up in cPanel.

    Id go for this. Also, are the sites related or are you directing on targeted users to your new site? If so, you might want to consider parking instead.

    drig I don't want to earn money from it now. I just want more visitors to some of my sites. They are not really targetted BUT a few are.

    I will be setting up hosting accounts for them now and make the 301 redirect.

    Then honestly its a waste of bandwidth. How much is a "few?" If you are sending 1 targeted for every 100 or 1000, best to go for parking or redirect to some affiliate program or something.

    It's about 200 search engines visitors / day.

    I am not interested to get money out of them now. I want them to tell further about my site. I need the name out there. That's why.

    Tnx guys, I've made the redirect and it's great !
