    Hi,

    If I buy few domain names and point to my site, how can i know which domain name is sending me more traffic. Should I go for 301 redirect or 302, or is the any other way to set this up.

    Many TIA.

    Permanent redirect 301 is preferred over a temporary 302. But that depends on what you want the redirected traffic to do for you.

    To find referrers (which is not reliable as it's in the browser control), either check your them through your hosting panel, or use a free stat tracking service.

    Or have each site redirect to a different landing page on your target site.

    To track your domain traffic you need to setup analytics code on those domains that you are redirecting....Then you can find which domain is getting more visits that ultimately will move to your own website...:)
