I have to permanently move a few pages, from http://www.site.com/page.cfm to http://www.site.com/new/page.cfm but also to preserve page rank for each one of them. So, is this the correct code to implement 301 URL Redirection?
<.cfheader statuscode="301" statustext="Moved permanently">
<.cfheader name="Location" value="http://www.site.com/new/page.cfm">
also can I delete http://www.site.com/page.cfm page after redirecting?

I wouldn't pester CF with this sort of thing: it's a job for the web server.

Yes, that code looks fine to do a permanent redirect. You could also use CFLOCATION instead:
<cflocation url="..." statuscode="301">
Or, as Adam points out, you could do this through your web server's own native functionality if you chose.
I wouldn't recommend deleting the original page as long as references to that page's URL exist anywhere.

yep but there is only one problem here, I am still running old CF MX 7 (plan to upgrade to CF 8 after new year ) and as far as I know statuscode is not supported in version 7. I'll try with IIS for now.
