A couple of months ago I rebranded my blog and put a 301 redirect in place in the htaccess file to redirect queenofsavings.com to queenofreviews.com.
Code:
RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^queenofsavings.com [NC,OR]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^www.queenofsavings.com [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://queenofreviews.com/$1 [L,R=301,NC]
A couple of months has passed and Google has indexed all of my pages on the new site, but my PR and DA and PA have not flowed to the new one. While looking into this today I started wondering if my DNS config is correct. Both domains are registered with Godaddy, the old domain is pointing to Linode's DNS servers and the new domain is pointing to Cloudflare which then points to Linode. In the DNS manager for Linode I have a master record for each pointing to the IP of my Linode. I am not sure that pointing the old domain directly to Linode is correct or if any of it is correct, but the redirect does work. Thanks in advance for advice you can provide.
