    What's best?

    Some sort of forwarding to the .co.uk? Or a different site? Or a simple page? Or something else?

    I've got 5 domains I've not got anything on at the moment - I have the .co.uk versions with stuff on.

    Any ideas?

    Hi Mogga

    I'd do a meta 301 redirect.

    Do you have access to Apache? You're on a linux server aren't you?

    Hi Mogga
    As the .co.uk's already have content and you don't want dup content on the .com's - I'd agree with GetVisible

    PS Christmas site already sorted - you are well organised!!

    if your registration agent allows c-name redirection and your links are relative and not absolute then c-name it as your .co.uk domains and youll have both sites identical but staying to thier own domains.

    useful at least until youve decided to design something special for the seperate sites anyway.

    and thus if you have 2 identical sites your liable to pick up a duplicate penality

    just 301 redirect the com's to the co.uk's safer and simpler
