Hello all,

I've got a site on an old googlepages.com site that has a fairly high searching engine result for choice keywords and I'd like to redirect search engines to a new domain address. Now I understand that this can be accomplished with 301 redirects but I do not have that level of control through the googlepages interface on the old site.

So I did some research and I found one solution that seems feasible. In this solution the author suggests that you:

  1. Replace your current site with a single link to the new site which also passes parameters which tell which page it's coming from.
  2. On that page figure out what is the corresponding page on the new site.
  3. Send a 301 redirect back to the browser to the corresponding page.

So the question is, is this feasible and will it work? Are there better solutions out there?

Thanks.
