Hello Everyone,  

Happy New Year to you all.

I am bit stuck on making the right White Hat SEO decision and I would be
very grateful to hear from some of the SEO experts amongst the group re the
following scenario:

A Client has a site that has been on same domain for around 7 years.  The
site was completely updated last year and many URLs remained the same.

They had around 345 back links and following a recent campaign we increased
that significantly to thousands of links and significantly improved their
rankings for the main keywords (to first page of SERP results - from
absolutely no-where to be seen!  Yeahhh ­ success!).

Now they are building a new site on a new domain (not a sub-domain) on which
they will host a chunk of the existing site.

So here are the challenges:

1.  Re-directs:  
We will need to redirect people to the new pages on the new site.

If we put in a 301 permanent redirect, Google may think we are spamming.  So
therefore should we implement an intermediate page (404) with a new URL? Or
is there another option?

2.  Link Building:
We want to mirror the link building we did on the original site.  That may
mean that we get twice the links coming in from the same source - to the
same organization.  Is this bad practice or would we need to implement a
no­follow from the original links to the pages on the old site?

Many thanks.   

Saludos!
