Two domains all point to the same sites, and i know this is not wise, now i want to abandon www.123.com and only use www.abc.com, but how to use 301 redirect on a single site?
Should i buy another new web space to put a different site with www.123.com and then 301 redirect to www.abc.com?
Thank you for ur help!
1. Move all content from www.123.com to www.abc.com - preserve the structure, so far as you can (folder setup, filenames, etc), where these do not duplicate existing content at the new site.
2. Set up a 301 permanent direct from www.123.com to www.abc.com
3. Check the new site navigation with xenu
4. Check that the 301 is fully functional by typing in some 'old' urls.
5. For the next few months, feel free to add new content, and make minor adjustments, but avoid any major changes to structure, navigation, filenames.
If that is a problem, please expand on what the difficulty is.
I was asking how to set up a 301 direct from 123.com to abc.com, not else. And the 2 domains point to only one site, so how can they be different content?
Somebody said "you can achieve this with a single line 301 redirectmatch in .htaccess", but i am not the server owner, i only rent space on other's server, how can i modified .htaccess file?

I stand by that advice. If there is only one set of content (not quite clear from your original post), even better; the 301 will be smooth as silk to the content which will be at abc.com.
If that is not what you wanted to hear, I'm sorry about that. But that doesn't make it wrong.
