      I have domain (let say abcshoes.com originially)

      for some reason i feel that i might get some sort of penalty then i decided to move to

      abccheapshoes.com then i do 301 originally then i see the ranking is coming up but not long its go down again, then i go ahead setup another domain again abcbuycheapshoes.com and i stick with this one for sometimes now

      now when i remove 301 redirect from abcshoes.com and abccheapshoes.com TO abcbuycheapshoes.com , i notice the domain in google showing is abcshoes.com still but my domain on the site is abcbuycheapshoes.com How can this possible?

      BUt when i run the business im using abcchoes.com and tell people visit abcshoes.com. Please give me some suggestion and i know its kind of mess here

      ---- summary ---

      abcshoes.com -->original (tell people to use this domain, they they visit)

      301 to

      abccheapshoes.com --> and i see ranking up then go down, i speculate some sort penalty

      301 to

      abcbuycheapshoes.com --> i stick for sometimes and i even get PR6 and some of inside page rank however the home page it seems lose ranking

      therefore i decided to remove 301 from

      ABCshoes.com

      302 to

      abcbuycheapshoes.com

      THE PROBLEM, google see it as abcshoes.com not abccheapshoes.com

      If i dediced to use new domain again is it good idea? or the above situation what can i do so that google will recognize ABCCHEAPSHOES.COM

        You may have confused google.

        ABCshows may have a lot of incoming links.

        It may be much more powerful than the new domain.

        You could go to the Site Explorer and check to see what your domain and page authority are for those domains.

        Switching your domains around will also confuse your visitors.
