Hi, i have an electronic music releated blog and i'm planning to delete it's content and setup music releated gaming site.. My blog has PR2 and 197 indexed page and 4 backlinks in google.. Is there any risk about decreasing PR after changing content in next 1-2months?? or should i setup gaming site to subdomain on my site?? which one is good solution??
You will only need a 301 redirect if you are planning on changing url's, if you are keeping same url's you won't need 301 redirects (where are you going to direct them too??). When you ask about losing page rank, if you keep the content good, and as you say it will be music related still (like the blog is now), then you should keep same page rank. If, however you are looking to change url's then yes you need 301 redirects from current url's to new ones so as pr is carried over to new url's. Hope this helps mate
Thanks for all answers it's more clear now I found this code for entire site Redirect 301 /oldpage.html http://www.example.com/newpage.html Code (markup): is it ok?? but my pages look like this (without html) http://www.stereotape.net/2009/05/02/niki-belucci-radio-fg-27042009/ Should i write like this; Redirect 301 /2009/05/02/niki-belucci-radio-fg-27042009/ http://www.stereotape.net/ Code (markup):
If you delete the content, you will lost some of the BL, index page and PR. Unless you have a good building program for the new site. If you still have interest in the electronic music blog you can keep it and create a subdomain name for the electronic game. Wish you all the best.
To be frank, PR2 isn't much of an achievement to worry about. As itsmeewan says, you can do a permanent redirect, but if you're basically starting a new site, then just do that, and start building links for the site you actually have.
