Thank you all, i deciced to keep my free site here at trap17 and work on the new one, i guess i can have the monopolium of the free flash clocks websites, at least the first and second results of the major search engines, i feel that it is better to work with the 2 websites to have almost all the searchers for free flash clocks for websites and blogs.

anwii, obviously my big problem is the google page ranking that i achieved with my trap17 free site about flash clocks, have it for some years now, i have tons of nbound links from popular websites indexed by google, and my new domain does not, but i thought i could rerirect all the thousands of visitors [high traffc] of my trap17 free site to my new domain to my new domain.

Another problem i had and still have is that my google adsense account have been suspended when i used to use inside my trap17 free website, and that is why i bought a new domain to use with my new google adsense account, which it will be registered with my girlfriend's personal data, or else i could not use google adsense never more, and i must because with all my high traffic, i am loosing big bucks, at least 50 to 100 euros a day, which is what i predict with my average 7000 to 9000 visitors a day.

Thnak you all, much apreciated for your replies.

i think it's msart to keep your trap site and visitors and rankings. you could always still do the 301 redirct but this way is better. also. a suggestion. i am assuming you are getting the high rankings in google which means you probably don't have as high ranking in the other search engines. i would suggest to optimize for the other engines with your new domain name. then you would really get the best of both worlds. remember also not to copy the same content. both sites would need to be different or google will penalize ya. so you do it this way then it wouldn't be considered spamming either.

as far as adsense, good idea to create another acount. don't let your friends or you keep clicking on the links which may not be the reason you got bonned, but most probable according to what usually is the case with banned users. your figures are about right. i averaged $1 for every 100 visitors. so with your figures, you'd be losing $70 a day. there are also a couple other good ad programs that are out there. don't believe that adsense is the best. and since you will have two sites, you will be able to test your market better.

one last thing bud. since you advertised on a major forum how you have little competition with your rankings, you will have some now. i would suggest editing your post nd getting rid of your link and any mention of your F C's and consider this thread closed just so nobody tries to compete with you now that you advertised your info to the whole world. believe me. the net is full of scabs ready to steal ideas and work hard in less competitive markets just to make a few bucks. you would be wise to edit your post as suggested

good luck to ya. update us about your progress with your sites in another thread and let us know how you created a great success with your trap17 website obviously if you have high ranking in google, you have a bunch of incoming links and great original content.

This thread has given me some hope about what can be done when transitioning a website from one address to another. Thanks so much for that, because it's something that I've also been wanting to do with one of my sites, but have been very worried about how my visitors and search engine rankings would suffer because of that. If you can, try and let us know how you do end up going about it, and how it all works out for you.

Thanks

Good Luck, Lyon2.

Do hope you make the best of this transition and come out with all guns blazing!!
As google proves it, you really are the best in the biz!!!

Yours must probably be the most successful blog on trap17! (that leads me to ask you, don't you have bandwidth problems??)
