    Hi Friends,
    I want to know some thing regarding web traffic, search engine rank ... we have a website offenmarkt.com now we want to change new domain name(which we have not think about the name)....we will change only domain name...other design content will be same....will it good for SEO?...will Google penalize our new domain for doing this? bcoz domain will change...but content will remain same.... If I will use redirection then it will be good?
    Again I am saying that, only domain name will change nothing more that....

    Please give me suggestion....

    I am not satisfied your reply :(
    I want to know...if I will not change any content design and other elements....Just will change the domain name....suppose; my at present domain is http://www.offenmarkt.com now I will change the only domain name http://newdomain.com

    Now, a visitor types my old domain name(http://www.offenmarkt.com) at his /her browser...now it will redirect to http://www.newdomain.com....just change in the domain name....other design content will same.....

    The process is good for SEO? What will do Google with my new domain?
