We were wondering if there are some other steps we need to make in order for Google to pass the Page Rank of our old url http://ph-commute.blogspot.com to our new url. When we check our google toolbar, there is still "no data available." Also, i coded an application that gets the response given a website, when i check the response of our old URL, it does not return a 301 Redirect, instead it returns the page itself. Any thoughts on this are much appreciated.

The changes are not immediate though, but I got back my PR but it took me longer than I had expected. Thanks!

@Blog Bloke
I made the changes. I think I got the words out “incorrectly” but I wish to point out that yours is the best one I’ve read (and followed). I’ve learned it from several feedback that my brown themed layout is not much attractive to some visitors (now it is a mess).

@elaine
Thanks a lot! I won’t get back to my old domain again.
