i have my website on a .com but i recently got the .co.uk for it aswell.

i built up site and links etc.... for the .com - but the majority of traffic comes from the UK, and this is really my target market.

now i am wondering what to do:
- should i host the site on the .co.uk aswell as the .com and build up links etc.... and treat both as seperate sites (with the same content)

or

- should i set up a 're-direct' on the .co.uk to the .com which is already somewhat established. - this would be the easier option but i would be concerned that i may lose out on google traffic on UK searches.
