Two domain names — same content — two providers?

expired domain names
KGKPILLAI P asked:

I have a website with domain name sample domain1 which is well indexed by all major search engines . Now due to the poor service provided to me by my web hoster I have taken a domain named sample domain 2 under another web hoster . Sample domain 1 and sample domain 2 are identical in content ( not even the minute change ) . The question is if I add /change the heading of my website in my meta tags like this :— sample domain 1/sample domain 2 . WHAT WILL HAPPEN ? Will I be penalised ? Since I have paid the annual fee to the service provider of sample domain 1 , I would like the site to run there till it expires .Should I submit sample domain 2 to the search engines as well ? Sample domain 2 is now showing –the site does not exist .

Would be grateful for a good answer

    Of course, you need to submit your second domain to major search engines. What ever the content remains same for the two domains, domains URL will not act as common. That should be unique know?? So hurry up in submitting your websites to search engines. I learned these SEO concepts from one good website hope this link will be useful for you in future while dealing with more SEO concepts.

    Preserve the good rankings by using 301 redirects to permanently redirect all old domain 1 pages to the domain 2 pages. This is the most efficient and search engine friendly method to moving over to a new domain.
