Hello, Here is my Q- Recently I redirected 301 my old site to my new site. Its already more then 2 weeks. Instead of my old site pointing to my new site I seems as at is banned and new site is not ranking as links not getting transferred to it. Here is what is happening- The info of old domain- http://tinyurl.com/q4yzns Not cached- http://tinyurl.com/qc6z8u But links still pointing- http://tinyurl.com/om9y48 My new domain is getting indexed but altogether like a new domain not like a redirect. It is getting indexed directly and google is not yet noticing the 301. As per me the pages in old domain that ranked for certain keywords should be ranking for that keywords in new domain also but that is not the case. The URLs from the old domain that ranked for certain keywords not ranking in new domain. My traffic dropped from 4000 daily to 200-300 that too direct visits and Yahoo search. I don't see a case of a ban as I don't have duplicate content, no outgoing links etc. Still I cant find what is happening.
traffic reduced bcoz old pages are index in google and traffic come based on that, so u need to include all the seo tags to new pages, and to include new pages you should restrict old url not to crawl by google and for website create xml sitemap and submit.
My pages are all the same. There are no two copies like old and new, as the page like- [http://mywebsite.com/page.html redirect 301 to http://newdomain.com/page.html Also I have submitted the sitemap and pages are same hence include all the SEO tags.
I Just googled it and found that 301 is safe method of re direct... http://www.theinternetdigest.net/archive/301-redirects-seo.html
