We found out my Mother has cancer and needed to move her quickly to Florida for treatment. She is on a limited budget so I was trying to help her and had Steven's came to the house and gave me a "garrenteed, not to exceed quote" Now they have everything our family owns on a truck in Northern Michigan and they are blackmailing me for more money! I am so disgusted!!!! This is so unethical! I am currently being blackmailed by Steven’s Van Lines out of Saginaw, MI on a move from Michigan to Florida.

You do this in a file called .htaccess by simply adding this line: redirect 301 / http://www.newsite.com (where "/" means redirect all) You do not want to do it any differently and risk being seen as a spammer.

I wrote a plugin to help. The details are at http://rmarsh.com/2006/09/23/moving-your-blog/. I came across a snag or two though (http://rmarsh.com/2006/09/27/a-word-of-caution-when-changing-domains/) which could have been easily dodged if I'd stuck to the database backup recipe at http://www.tamba2.org.uk/wordpress/move2/.

I've moved sites from one domain to another quite seamlessly using mod_rewrite rules in the past, but I usually have root access to everything :) A lot will depend on the level of control you have over your apache config… I’ve moved sites from one domain to another quite seamlessly using mod_rewrite rules in the past, but I usually have root access to everything :)

In this case we would be talking about a 301 (permanent redirect). Some data can be found here: http://www.w3.org/QA/Tips/reback If I remember correctly, Google spiders are intelligent enough to understand these and, thus, move the PR to the new website. All the same I'd suggest you checking that information or how to achieve it the best possible. The best way of doing so is having your old website return a redirect.
