SEO for website, 301 redirect?

    I have a question regarding 301,

    I have a number of domain names that I would like to redirect, but for instance if you have 50-100 and you want it redirected to one page, will that be a negative thing to do in google?

    Also with 301 redirect will it display the results at the top of the page, instead of pulling the content from a blank redirect or what not, will it now pull the content from your website that its pointing to?

    I wouldn't redirect 50-100 domains all at once. That would look spammy to Google. If you must do this, do it gradually over time. It still may look spammy in the end though.

    With a 301 redirect, it just redirects visitors to the new site and shows all the content of the new site. It doesn't leave any trace of the site it redirected from.

    While a 301 redirect may pass PR/links to the new site, don't expect to immediately retain any of the rankings of the old sites. They may come back in time though.

    it will not pull the content from other site, it will redirect to other site and the other site will be displayed in whole.
