Hello, I am moving one dating site to a another site with same content. I follow the right way to do that by using htaccess to redirect all folders from the old site to a new domain. Since mine is dating site, I have one question. Do I have to delete the database from the old site? Can Google find the database with profiles from the old site to be duplicated with the new site? Thanks very much.
no, google cannot access your database, so delete or not, up to you yes, google will find out it's the same. better use webmaster tool and move one domain to another
Hi, I don't think this would be treated as a duplication issue if only you have correct 301 redirection setup. Also duplicated issue would refer to duplicated contents on the same domain. all the best,
