    Very simple question.

    Does parking domains on top of your site using the 301 redirect or even just forwarding them to your site straight from the registrar qualify as black hat seo or is it in any way harmfull?

    Thanks

    No, that's not harmful and it's not even BlackHat. You are allowed to do that.

    Cheers!

    yeah, you can do it. Though my question stems from this. I was gonna start a thread but then saw this one.

    Is it black hat seo if you take one of your sites and 301 it to something like google to get the same PR? Does that even work?

    301'ing is perfectly normal and legal (SE-wise).

    Thats good to know, as I have some hight traffic domains which werent used.

    Hades: That question I can answer.
    You can park domains on top of others and the parked domains WILL get the PR of the base one, but not a real PR.

    That's how some people here try and scam people into buying fake PR domains. That'w why info:www.domain.com is always usefull to see if the domain and it's PR is real
