Question about 301 redirects

[Jinyus]

Is it OK to do a 301 from the domain registrar or should I make a site and redirect through htaccess? Does it matter?

You want redirect the main domain only or some internal links too?

It's an expired domain so I just want the link juice. I want to redirect everything

Hmm. I haven't tried to forward internal links from the registrar before. Not sure if it is doable too.

But it will not make any difference. Since both are redirecting to the same page. Do it from the domain company or in the host will make no difference.

It all comes to future adjustments. With the hosting I think you have more freedom and flexibility than the domain company though.

Good luck .

You can redirect by domain register level. You only need hosting level redirection the website page by page exactly.

From the domain would be fine if you are just redirecting straight away.

If you expect to get some link juice from 301 redirect at the registrar level, then do not even bother. Waste of 10 bucks.

Unless you have strong domain, which is super relevant to your money site (anchors are redirected too), then you will experience no effect or even screw up your site. There have been plenty of cases like that. Not to mention, for 301 redirect to work, you need to build up the domain, let it rest, wait till it ranks at least somewhere and then redirect it.

Thanks for this explanation... One of my competitors who is fairly new is using 5 301s to rank in top 5. Thought I'd try it too.

If its a quality Website, Why need to manually index that link using indexer ?
anyways, you can use Free Search Engine Submission Websites for this purpose.

Rule of thumb - If it's too good to be true, then there's probably some catch somewhere, because everyone would be doing it
