Is there no penalty at all for a 301?
and do you think there might be a penalty for my refresh method?

A problem with sitebuilder:
If I recall correctly, the 301 redirect code needs to be the very first line of code (or maybe this was one of the other methods I tried unsuccessfully.) Anyway Sitebuilder lets you insert html but I don't think it lets you insert it on the very first line of code. maybe I just need to keep trying as different sites seem to phrase it slightly differently. Or maybe there's another way I can edit in html since sitebuilder seems to have limited control there.

Also yahoo wouldn't let me create .htaccess file because it said files can't start with a "."
