301 redirect to multiple domain
-
Hi guys,
I have a domain A, B and C. The domain A was an association of two business and they are about to split. Parts of domain A are going to be redirect to domain B, but some content belong to the domain C.
So my question : Is it possible to 301 redirect some pages from A to B and some other pages from A to C and if yes, what would be the impact on SEO ?
Thanks a lot!

Thanks a lot guys. I'll do it that way!
Thanks for your time.

It would act like any other 301 as you will see a dip and then it recovers. Here is a QNA on Moz that talks about things to consider beyond just setting up the 301s lines up with what we are talking about

Good answer. I second this advice.

Hi CleverPhD,
Thanks for the fast answer. This is mostly what i'm thinking too. Have you tried it already ? If yes have you seen something different than a normal 301 from A to B ?
Thank you!

Yes you can do this. The 301 can go anywhere. As far as SEO impact, as long as the page that you are sending people to is semantically related to the page they are coming from, you may lose a little bit, but over time it should all be fine. Also, it is best if you have a one to one relationship on your 301s. If you take all the links from Section 1 on Domain A and then 301 them to the home page of Domain B and likewise take all the links from Section 2 on Domain A and 301 them to the home page of Domain C, that is suboptimal. You are likely to lose the semantic relationship and then the SEO benefit would be damaged.

Will this 301 redirects help me?
Hello, recently, I found out about all the SEO advantages from 301 redirects. I had 3 websites that are now expired, their topic was Counter Strike 1.6 servers. All of these websites were registered 9 years ago and have few good backlinks (from website with 1%-3% spam score and DA 30+). Now I have one website that is not only about Counter Strike 1.6 but also many other Steam shooter games. If I revive these 3 old domains and 301 redirect them to my new one, will it help me with SEO and increase my ranking on Google?

Hi, I have some very weird results in the SERPS - We did not do a complete 301 of the entire domain, but rather individual pages.

301 redirect for duplicate content
Hey, I have just started working on a site which is a video based city guide, with promotional videos for restaurants, bars, activities,etc. The first thing that I have noticed is that every video on the site has two possible urls:- http://www.domain.com/venue.php?url=rosemarino
Intermediate & Advanced SEO | | AdeLewis
http://www.domain.com/venue/rosemarino I know that I can write a .htaccess line to redirect one to the other:- redirect 301 /venue.php?url=rosemarino http://www.domain.com/venue/rosemarino but this would involve creating a .htaccess line for every video on the site and new videos that get added may get missed. Does anyone know a way of creating a rule to rewrite these urls? Any help would be most gratefully received. Thanks. Ade.0
