      I manage this domain name www.jordanhundley.com . Right now it is 301 to www.jordanhundley.net where I hosted the content for almost 18 months. At this point you are only able to read the 301 script if you use CTRL U at the .com domain.

      Does Google read the content beyond the script? Is the 301 website getting juice from the targeted domain ?

      This is the script I´m using

      <html>
      
      <head>
        <title>Jordan Hundleytitle>
      
      head>
      <frameset rows="100%,*" border="0">
        <frame src="[http://www.jordanhundley.net](view-source:http://www.jordanhundley.net/)" frameborder="0" />
      frameset><noframes>noframes>
      
      

      html>

        Hi Melvin -

        I'm a little confused.  This looks like an iFrame, not a 301 redirect.  You would typically set up your 301 from inside Apache.

          If if use an iFrame with the script listed above how would Google interpret it ?

            Sorry if this is a double post, but my last isn't showing up.

            I have typically had problems getting google to spider iframes.  If you are just trying to redirect your .com site to your .net,  I'd use an apache 301 redirect.

            Here's a link:  http://support.google.com/webmasters/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=34445

            Does that help?

              HI Melvin,

              In general Iframes aren't good from an SEO perspective.

              There are some other similar questions about this in Roger's Belly

                As mentioned above, iframes aren't considered best practice for SEO.

                The cleaner way to accomplish this is to set up a permanent 301 redirect using the .htaccess file for your .com site.

                This code should do the trick:

                Options +FollowSymLinks

                RewriteEngine on

                RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^www.jordanhundley.com$

                RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://www.jordanhundley.net/$1 [R=301,L]

                    DONE !! I modified the .htaccess

                    • http://www.jordanhundley.com

                    we will keep an eye on the SEO results for the .com and the .net

                    At this moment when you search for "Jordan Hundley" the DOT COM shows first.

                    • We recently updated a large guide that takes the place of the original. The original has some nice organic traffic to it and I don't want to risk losing it. Should I 301 redirect to the new version, or update all the info directly on the original page?
