    If you use "meta refresh" to redirect a.html to b.html

    Google will index b.html , and remove a.html?

    Google will pass pr from a.html to b.html?

    The rank of b.html will replace the a.html?

    lso, I heard somewhere that google regards undelayed meta refresh as
    same to 301 redirect. Is it true?

    If i used 5 seconds in meta refresh what is the result?

    Thanks for the help

    The Meta tags and especially the ones which would have some commands for the robots are really not that effective nowadays as the search engines do not follow all of them carefully.

    For redirecting use the 301 option or simply create a redirect from your hosting panel.

    no. 301 is much better for SEO than meta refresh!

    I would advise 301 as this is permanent, proven and will work for you with Google
