      I have tow domains (destination/town - travel websites), www.gansbaai.com, and www.danger-point-peninsula.co.za. The one, gansbaai.com is an old domain I bought under which I will be launching a new website in a couple of months. danger-point-peninsula.co.za, is another domain I acquired also about gansbaai, the area. I will we using the domain gansbaai.cm, but want to get the best link juice out of danger-point-peninsula. How do I merge the domains?

        To get the best SEO benefit, simply 301 redirect each page on the danger-point-peninsula.co.za to the most relevant page on gansbaai.com. This way anchor text will still be appropriate to the pages and users who go through the old backlinks will land on a page that provides about the same information that they were trying to find.

        Is this what your question was asking?

          Hi Joe

          Thanks for your advice, however, if you look at the websites, gansbaai.com it is really bad, only has 1 page, I really only bought it for the domian age and couple of links it has (and because I want to launch my new sit under this domain)....so there are not enough pages to 301 all danger-point, and I want to loose as little link juice as possible....Any feedback would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

          • I've consolidated other domains to a single one with 301 redirects, yet the new domain authority in MOZ is much less that the redirected ones. Is that right?
