Thinking about this purely from the perspective of SEO, does the domain still have backlinks pointing to it from that 2011 timeframe?
If yes, then the "age" of the domain shouldn't matter as much as the age of the backlinks.
So if the old links are still pointing to it, the newer domain age shouldn't matter - you should be good. I would use a pages report in a backlink analysis tool (I prefer Majestic, but I know there are others :)) and then pull up the Wayback Machine to see what kind of data it has on the domain. Then work on rebuilding the essential pages from there.
- thescribbblr 5y agoThanks again Jonathan. I want to know do I need to republish those old pages which backlinks are pointing to? Also, do I need to make the content of the homepage similar to the old homepage? If yes? When should I replace the content of homepage like after 6 months 5 months ?
- jonathanbentz 5y agoHey there - sorry for the delay in getting back to you. To answer your questions as directly as possible... 1 - yes. 2 - yes, as much as possible. 3 - 3 months minimum. anything after that is great but not necessary IMO.
