    I am migrating to a new design and layout. Prior to creating a blog for my sports site I would create a new page daily for each sports game I previewed. Now I have 100's of pages that get hardly any views but many have been cached in G.

    So here is my dilema:

    Do I create a 301 redirect to the homepage for all these pages in case someone happens to come across one? Basically removing them from the site?

    Or

    Do I leave them with the old design?

    Or

    Suck it up and migrate them all which will take a long time?

    Thanks

    If it is good content I would suck it up and migrate them all. However, you can use this forum's services section and get someone to do it for you for a cheap price. Why waste all that hard work? Content, especially orginal content, is something that you should hold on to.

    yea same, keep the content! it's being used by google to judge what your site is about and rank you for particular keywords. maybe the content will rank higher in longer turn, unless you stole the content and it's duplicate.

    I would opt for keeping your old content
