Default How best to pointing another domain to established domain

I have a domain that I can say thank God, has good search engine positioning. I am wanting to point another domain to it through my registar for a couple of months till i build a website for it. This second domain has type in traffic and in bound links to its home page and likely in bound links to other pages on the second domain.

I will be building a website to the second domain, shortly. Until then, I wanted to forward all the traffic from the second domain to my main website. I will not know any of the old page names of the second domain, so how best to handle this without doing anything wrong?

I was thinking of forwarding the main page through my registar and then maybe posting a custom 404 error with some Google Analytics tracking code on it, to catch everything else.....


Any ideas????


Thanks..............

Moved to Search Engine Optimization Forum.

Well if you 301 redirect it to the main domains expect Google to filter out that secondary domain. If you will be building a website shortly I would say forget 30 1 redirecting as it will cause you more work in the long run.
