Hi,

If you ever had an old domain with a decent number of backlinks and decent online value, then it is always suggested to 301 permanently redirect your old domain URLs to your new domain respective page URLs. It will pass-on all the link juice and online value of your old domain to the new one and will also direct your old domain users to the new domain. So at the end, redirecting the old domain to new domain is always beneficial for both, the online value and website traffic.

You can 301 redirect your old website to new website and get benefits of link juice and rankings.

A 301 redirect means that the page has permanently moved to a new location. The instruction indicates the old location, the new location and that this move or change is permanent. The change can be a change in domain name, web page name, path to a web page on the site or to another site.

In most instances, the 301 redirect is the best method for implementing redirects on a website.

Google understands website with www and non www as 2 different websites, not one. If you build backlinks for your website, if both address exists, this means your backlinks will be divided for the 2 domains. To avoid this situation from happening, you can use redirect 301 to direct all the backlinks and SEO value from your old domain to the new one.
