PageRank Question.

[mhancoc7]

I currently have a PageRank of 3. That is for my site's Home Page. (www.whatwouldjesusdownload.com/index.html (http://www.whatwouldjesusdownload.com)). However, I recently incorporated an ODP script on the Home Page. This required the actual Home Page to be different. I am now redirecting all traffic from www.whatwouldjesusdownload.com/index.html (http://www.whatwouldjesusdownload.com) to www.whatwouldjesusdownload.com/webdirectory/odp.php (http://www.whatwouldjesusdownload.com). How will this affect my PageRank? Is there anyway to maintain the rank of 3 and continue to move up with my current setup.?

Thanks in advance for any and all help.

God Bless, Jereme

I recommend to use 301 redirect ;)

I believe that is what I am currently using. I just went into my cpanel admin of my hosting account and setup a permanant redirect. I read through the cpanel docs and it does not refer to it as a 301 redirect. This is kind of newbish for my to ask, but is this a 301 redirect?
Thanks, Jereme
