    Hello members!

    I am wondering if its ok to do a 301 redirect of a domain to a URL of a website. example, 301 redirect of www.mysite.com to www.yoursite.com/abc.htm.

    I know 301 redirects is the best seo option but if I redirect a domain to a inside page of my website, is that safe? is that domain masking?

    Thank you.

    Yes, you are right. 301 redirects is the best SEO option for redirecting a domain to other or any internal page to other.
    I think it does not matters what you are redirecting from one domain to another internal page. It will behave as a simple redirect what it is..

    301 redirect of an entire domain to an internal page of a new domain shouldn't be done and it's one way of cloaking method (black hat technique). 301 redirect should be done page-to-page i.e. www.mysite.com/abc.htm to www.yoursite.com/abc.htm etc.
