301 redirect with anchor text

tdd1984 · 04-13-2007, 06:28 AM

I'm thinking about changing my domain name becuase its super long, plus I want something more short, the problem is I know it passes all the links, and pr using a 301 redirect on the old domain, but does it pass the anchor text along with it?

No, I am sure it does not

tdd1984 · 04-13-2007, 01:58 PM

if the pr is getting passed, then the keywords should too

theseokit · 04-13-2007, 02:03 PM

mm, I doubt it, the PR doesn't really get passed either if you think about it. It just redirects to the new page, that new page wont get that high PR the old site had.

yes the pr does get passed to the new page, thats what 301 redirect is good for, all your links, and etc get passed to the new domain when using a 301 redirect all search engines pass it

Hmm, well I never needed one but if you already knew this then why did you ask?

tdd1984 · 04-13-2007, 03:28 PM

asking in details, I know the page rank gets passed, but does the anchor text

i think everythink will pass to your new domain with 301 redirect

Darn good question, and at least in my head I could make arguments for both outcomes. I'm afraid the only way to know for sure is to try it, wait a few months, and then check out the results.

well thats what I was wondering, but I don't think no one can actually answer my question directly.

what I'm reading is that 301 redircts do pass all pr juice, and anchor text.
