I was looking to have another domain point to the site being LinuxOnlineCasinoGuide.com though instead of just pointing to the site, I want it to feature the name Linux Online Casino Guide as well as the site description etc.
Is this possible or am I better off just importing the site to the new name and do something else with the old name, so as to avoid site duplication? The main issue would be setting all the links (wow a heap I know) again, but this wouldn’t take me too long anyway.
OK, let’s go back to the start… The trubluecasinoguide.com, if you do the 301 redirect to the new domain LinuxOnlineCasinoGuide.com then eventually all the Search Engines will update their database with the new domain. It should also transfer the PR and all the link popularity to that site (in theory).
You would then have to update anything that refers to the old domain. I hope you weren’t using absolute links in the old site, because then you’d have to do a find and replace to fix that up for maximum efficieny, replacing all of the old domain links to the new one. In fact, I just checked it and noticed it’s a wordpress blog 
You can get a meta redirect plugin that does all this.
If you want the easiest answer, add this to your .htaccess:
redirect 301 / http://www.vsbc.ca/%5B/CODE%5D
Also, since your using WordPress:
[list]
[*]Log into yourmain.com/wp-admin/
[*]Click on “Options”
[*]Change the Weblog title
[*]Change the Tagline
[*]Change the WordPress address (URL)
[*]Change the Blog address (URL)
[*]* Change the E-mail address (optional if you were using the old domain email)
[/list]
This way you stay clean with the Search |Engines and don’t get penalized for duplicate content over two domains.
If this sounds too annoying and difficult to do PM me and I can talk you through it on the telephone or on Messenger.[CODE]redirect 301 / http://www.vsbc.ca/%5B/CODE%5D
