All backlinks around the internet still link to old domain. Additional redirect causes this, together with IMO ridiculous decision by Google to derank websites after domain migration
- yabadabadoes 7y agoI think Google is going with pleasing the user in this case. If I have a passing interest and finally come back years later, I have no interest in following rebranding history to figure out this isn't yet another cheap copy, if Google finds me 1 or 2 of the 3 sites I remember without irritating me or dropping me on sites I'm not sure about, they have a happy user that might be open to ads.
