Hello,

Google deindexed one of my sites because of poor content quality (panda), however the site has some decent backlinks.

I wonder, if it's smart to 301 redirect that domain to a new site to pass some link juice? Would it reflect in positive or negative seo?

Any suggestions or opinions?

Thanks.
 
A deindexed site does not pass any juice. 301 redirecting is useless (you just risk getting the other website deindexed as well). And as per my knowledge, the algorithm hits does not deindex a website. You are most likely hit by a manual action/penalty.

Yes, this works, you may pass the backlinks authority to one new domain with 301 refirect, is this method then own PBNs uses.

Thanks for advice. I appreciate it.
 
Actually a deindexed site not necessarily is a dud - it still passes link juice in a way secretly - but if it is deindexed, then the problem could lie somewhere else, such as a weak backlink profile, which is why it got deindexed in the first place.
A lousy website with lousy content with good backlinks will still be indexed one-way another - the same goes with a site with alot of spam backlinks, it still gets indexed as it still has some quality links linking back to balance out the spam.
If totally deindexed, then the link profile should be no good.
