Hi All,
Firstly this is not a "why is my PR 0 question".
I used to have a site, www.starski.com which managed to get to PR4 thanks to Chris and those at SPF. We lost our supplier so mid/late last year the site ceased trading, and was dormant ever since (did not take it down - host stopped support and was 500'ing all the time).
About 2 weeks ago I decided to create a content site based on the same subject, and www.ski-review.com was born. I have some good backlinks (soon to kick in) and have had great luck with DMOZ/Zeal and our friend GoogleBot.
I pointed the starski.com domain to it and it has been sending it about half the traffic the site currently receives.
Recently I have seen google listing the starski domain with the new title info in the SERPs (ahead of ski-review on the 64 datacentre)
Question number 1. If you check starski.com has a PR of 4 STILL even though it has been inaccessible for months? Should that be the case? (Many of the backlinks still exist but not the more fruitful ones).
Secondly, what is the most effective way of using starski.com with the site?
Eventually starski will cease but for the time being what should I do, it is currently supplying a lot of traffic although I cannot tell whether this is from SE or direct traffic. What are the current vibes surrounding dual domains?
Ultimately I want just one domain name for aestethics, my own anal personality and not to confuse the users (already seen someone referencing starski.com as a source for a review for a pair of skis being sold on ebay...).
Thanks all. Any advice heartily received.
Dan
