    I have a site I am starting that is a .COM.
    I also own the .CA and want to direct any type in traffic to .COM.

    What is the best way to do this to avoid any penalties from search engines?

    Duplicate content? Redirect? Splash page?

    Thanks in advance!

    301 redirect one domain to the other... plain and simple.

    Enter the below in your *.ca domain's .htacces file...

    
Redirect 301 / [B]http://www.yourdomainhere.com/[/B]
