Can I have two domains pointing at my website?
I have an established website that is well ranked in the search engines. The problem is, when I first created the site, I made the domain name my company name. Now I want to use a different domain name but not lose my rankings. Can I have two domains pointing at my website?

In short – YES. You can have as many as you like. The previous answer is very relevant, but if you have a well functioning site but don’t want to set up a full new site this would work well.
If your current sites domain name is a bit unobvious eg you are a baker but the domain was ww.mrjohnsmith.co. or hard to spell, then a simple domain like http://www.thebaker.co directing to your current site would be a good choice.
But don’t forget to have that one set up with relevant tags and key words etc so that that will also appear in searches.
Alternatively, set up a single page site, welcoming people, but then add a BIG obvious link to take them to the main site/shop
My advice to you would be that keep both domains seperate and dont risk losing rankings of the main domain.
Generate content on your second site and keep it as a different entity.
