Change domain name question

I'm thinking of changing the domain name of my Smugmug account because I want to set up a new site using the domain currently used with SM - I'm wondering what the implications of this are, if any ? Would it be an idea to redirect from the old to the new domain for a while ?

    Caroline,

    There are no implications on our end specifically. But it can cause your search results to drop, or any links on other sites that used the custom domain will no longer work. You can redirect, but those direct lnks will not translate over well.

    Thanks Doc, probably best to think about this a bit more before making any changes :-)
