our business website forums are running since 2 year
now we have a problem with the domain name, person who registered the domain had internal disputes and started his own business on the same domain name. www.olddomain.com
The issue only resides with the domain name, all other data for site database, customers, server provider are registered with us. Since we did not had any legal agreement for the domain, we cannot do anything for old domain

At last, we have to shift to a new domin www.newdomain.com
our old domain has a pageranking 7.0 and we get around 25000 visits daily from search engines, there are more then 15000 registered users.

If we start with a new domain name will this effect our business as we target our customers only from forums.
How long it should take for the new domain to get traffic like before as we had more then 25000 uniques daily and what would be the best way to get the things started immediately ?

How important is the old domain with page ranking to you, is there a way to buy the domain from the other owner and is it really worth the price. Also, if the domain name was www.abcd.com maybe getting a domain name close to that like www.abcd.net or something to that matter will help.

When does the Old domain expire for you, and if you got a few months go ahead and get the new domain and setup a rediect to the currnent site until you need to change over and then start letting you clients know of the domain change now. it will ensure that the clinets are informed and don't become upset with the changes. There are a lot of things to look at here and you should really pick them apart now before it "D" day and you have to react to the change instead of being proactive.
