Hi Todd,

Thanks for confirming the redirect will not solve the issue.

I received an unnatural link warning on March 22nd, and the penalty came into effect 2 weeks later even after removing the links.

My blog which is on a different sub domain has had a dramatic increase in SE traffic and I'm now thinking to start fresh on a new site and redirect the blog only.

Last month my rankings dropped a couple of pages on Google and am no longer receiving as many visits from Google as I used to. It's coming up to summer which is the time my business naturally picks up yet I can't fix this problem.

I have a crazy idea of redirecting my established site onto a new domain in hopes that the penalty would be removed.

I have tried removing any manipulative links yet my ranking are not coming back.

Anyone had success in redirecting to a new domain?
