sending link juice with rel = canonical

yo fellow blackhatters

I have a new domain and put some scraped content on it. Most of the pages were not indexed though. Then after some weeks I took a fine expired domain and put the same scraped content on it. Almost all pages got indexed fast.

As it is the same content I am wondering now if I can use rel = canonical from the expired one to my new money site:

page-1 on expired domain -----> page-1 on new domain
page-2 on expired domain -----> page-2 on new domain

(----> indicating rel=canonical)

My idea is that I send the link juice from the expired domain to the new domain with rel = canonical because it has similar effects as a 301. Thus it should help to get the pages of the new domain get indexed and rank eventually.


What do you think?

any experience here?

If the page were in the same domain, i would use rel canonical, i that page is in other domain i'd use R301!
