Comment on 301 Redirect Htaccess by SEO Dave.
Add a .htaccess file to each domain you don’t want to use to the domain you do want to use.
If you planned to use the .com you’d setup a .htaccess file with this in the other two:
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^www.stallion-theme.org$
RewriteRule (.*) http://www.stallion-theme.co.uk/$1 [R=301,L]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^stallion-theme.org$
RewriteRule (.*) http://www.stallion-theme.co.uk/$1 [R=301,L]The one above redirects the .org to .co.uk. so that would go in the root of the .org site.
For a .net domain replace org with net.
The above is also set to redirect the non-www to the www version of the domain.
