---- Undoing a 301

I did a 301 to a new domain name about a month ago.

I assume that the site URL structure was kept as it was and you simply copied the site to a new name and from your registrars control panel pointed the old domain name at the new one?

For example when typing exampleold.com/widgets.html it automatically goes to examplenew.com/widgets.html?

If so then you need some more time, I recently did that with a successful site and whilst Google picked up on it very quickly it took a month before some pages started to re-appear, two months for the majority of them and the images began to be replaced in image search and at 3 months the entire original site has been purged of all the old URLs, all the images have been replaced and ranking is back to where it was before, in fact I think the images are even better than before!
