Hello guys I done a 301 redirect, and lost all my rankings, its been about 5 days since i did the 301, any one know how long it takes for my rankings to come back?
Ive done many times, and i did not suffer from anything. I did it once for PR8 web site for more than 300k pages.
how exactly did you do this 301 redirect? from one site to another or page to page? post the code you used
I did 301 redirect for several sites. Usually it took about 2-4 weeks to complete all process. We didn't lose our positions in SE
Well i think mine is still sorting out, any pages on my old website you go to read 301 redirect then it redirect to the new website thats what the header reads. I'm wondering if maybe my rankings are gone because its still sorting everything out .
I have seen matt cutts advising peoples to use 301, when moving, so don't worry and be patient hope everything will be returned to normal. Goodluck
yes well our rankings were gone for about 3 months, but there back now. It took a long time for it to come back, and it was a pain.
When I moved off blogspot I had put up my domain and redirected all the pages to the new pages with .htaccess. (Or else blogspot would redirect to a 404) It was tedious but google updated all the Urls in the serps for my pages. I don't think I suffered any penalties.
