Redirects OK with Google?

I am trying to understand the Google penalties for redirects. If for example, I sell widgets and my website is
www.widgets.com and I buy the URL's for
www.widgetsrus.com and
www.sacramentowidgets.com and I redirect them to my site
www.widgets.com, am I doing something that Google will penalize?

From what I understand if you're redirecting sites with duplicate content to a common URL (e.g. if
www.abc.co.uk and
www.def.com.au redirect to
www.ghi.com) then google will see this as spamming and blacklist your site!
Hope this helps

Forwarding vs Redirect

Is URL forwarding the same as a redirect? If not, is forwarding a URL a Google no-no?

Yeah, I believe URL forwarding and redirects are the same thing. Not 100% on that though. Possible that URL forwarding could be at the DNS...
Try Google, see what you come up with. Good luck.

url forwarding

Hi there,
As far as I know url fowarding is OK for google. There is a lot of sites with alias names (e.g. alias.domainname.com) that is actually a forwarding, and those sites have pretty good google ranking.
Have a great day
