What if you returned a 301 to the new URL? You'd think Google would have logic to get that kind of hint.

- jbeales 11y agoThat's probably what he did - it's the best practise, I believe.
- mikeg8 11y agoI think they do. If you setup 301 wildcard redirects, google should replace the old site's urls with the new one in their index over time, after they've been crawled. (at least from what I remember when I was digging into it myself)
- dimfeld 11y agoThe old domain (saveyourself.ca) mentioned in the article does do this.
- monk_e_boy 11y agoThat was the whole point of the article ;) how that didn't work and how it fucked his site.
