Greetings -

I recently found a site name that I prefer to my existing name.
I'd like to mitigate the loss of traffic to the site.

Presumably I can set up an autoForward of some sort for the main URL, but what, if anything, can I do do facilitate the forwarding of specific pages, and is there anything that I can do to minimize the search engine hit?

Thanks kindly.

- Richard

You would probably get more responses if you posted this in the SEO forum.

Do a 301 Redirect from the old site's pages to the new sites pages.
