That is awesome man, congrats. I did this as well but in place of buying a new domain, I moved my popular pages over to Squidoo and forwarded the old ones to it. Mostly because I lost my Adsense account because I started using it on a couple youtube videos that started to get a decent amount of views. Then a competitor slammed my video with cheap views I think... I'm mad but that is another subject...
In any case these pages are starting to come back as well. Not got my number one spot back yet but it is still going that way. Even got a PR4 on one of my lens without doing anything
Have a pet website? PM me!
[Update]: Got a broken link wheel created by our member "IdreesFarooq" ....
Eagerly waiting for Google to index those links ! Will be updating about the SERP rank in a couple of days !!
It seems great. I have to try it. I have an EMD domain and also have a non EMD domain.
How did you do the redirection? .htaccess or in cpanel?
All the old URLs are redirected to the new one?
Thanks for sharing this tip!
Thanks.
Also the content remained the same or you create new content for the new domain?
Same content ... as imported from the old site !

Seems impressive.
I tried to implement your method, but at present there is no result.
I think I should build some more links.
I have to edit this post. I checked again the results right now and one of my keywords shows some improvements:
