Setting Up A Website For Redirects

[abisti2]

I've got an old defunct domain with a lot of backlinks to individual pages.

I'd like to use these backlinks for link juice by redirecting them to individual pages on the new domain (both sites belong to the same company).

What is the best way to set this up? I presume I need some kind of hosting & site, even if it's just a default Wordpress install, which I can then use to set up the redirects?

Would it be best done using .htaccess file for 301 redirects or some other way?

All you need is a hosting account and to point the domain to a specific directory containing your .htaccess file.

Place your 301 redirects in the .htaccess file and you will be good to go. No WordPress install is necessary.

Fantastic - many thanks Chris!
