Need Suggestions - thinking of merging two forums

    I recently purchased a forum which is on 4 yrs old domain. I was thinking about merging it with my current forum and redirecting the old domain to my new domain. The problem is I cannot decide if its better to keep an older domain running as stand alone due to creditability from SE and member or just merge both of the forums together so that everything is in one place and use my current domain name. Please let me decide

    Thanx for your help

    Hi

    I have to say that using the older domain name would be more beneficial than using the newer domain name. I would much prefer the older domain name in terms of search engines etc.

    Stick with the older one IMO

    can you post here the old domain name and the new domain name? stick with a domain name that is easy to type in the browser and easy to be remembered.

    Use whichever one is better. If search engines are the only thing you think about, you won't get anywhere.
