    Good afternoon friends.

    Hoping that it's not against the rules to give details about my website, I am the owner of an Arsenal(soccer club) website which however doesn't have the word "arsenal" in the domain.

    It's however a PR5 domain coming up 4th in Google results for a popular term (arsenal blog) but I was wondering how to make up for this "original sin".

    I was thinking of:

    1. Redirecting those landing on the homepage from .com to .com/arsenal/index.php

    2. Buy a domain with the word "arsenal" and turn it into a sort of news aggregator website having news from my website, maybe some others as well but no competitors of course. I would then add three-four links back to my original website.

    3. Re-branding but I believe I would lose the rank and all backlinks and so on so I believe this is a stupid idea.

    What do you guys think?

    Cheers.

    as its a blog u need to make blog posts with targetted keywords and can achieve that.

    making redirections can hurt the present seo

    Thanks for the reply mate.

    "blog posts with targetted keywords" ... would that be #2 of my list?
