      My client is running a online news website, which is running for 4 years. He's now looking to change the site into a new domain. I would like to know what  are the factors to look out for when changing the site into new domain (In SEO point of view)

        My first tip is that you make a 301 from the old domain to the new domain. If you do this, you keep almost all the link juice.

          This question has been covered quite a few times in the Q&A section and I believe there may have even been blog posts on here regarding it.

          try searching for site:seomoz.org "domain change" or similar and you should find lots of useful information from this site.
