Skip to main content

Should we move our blog from subdomain to subdirectory?

Our blog generates nearly 2/3 of traffic to our domain (~11,000 for blog vs ~6000 for our main store).

I've read a lot on this subject, but wanted your opinions. Blog is on WP and store is on Shopify.

My concern for moving the blog from its subdomain to the store's subdirectory are:

  1. The blog may be able to rank posts so highly at the moment because it focuses all SEO ranking power on posts. If we move the posts to the store, the posts will now be buried along with the 10000+ product pages on the store - they may fail to stand out. New blog posts will no longer be on the homepage of the store, for example.
  2. Shopify's blogging features suck, and SEO for blog content may be significantly be weaker than on WP. In fact, I'm not even sure if there can be a 1:1 transfer of WP blog articles to Shopify blog.

HTTP-HTTPS redirects: domain level or each URL?

Googling for answers seems to give conflicting answers here. We have a domain that has been HTTP but some individual URLs have been HTTPS (like form pages). We are about to deploy HTTPS redirect on the server to get everything going to https://www.domain.com . Do we have to go to the effort of a big 301 redirect list of all page-level URLs without Google dropping our earned page rank?

One website, two properties (domains)

I wasn't sure how to frame that title so let me explain; Due to error on my part, I have ended up with, a www.xyz.com , version of my website, and one that's just xyz.com. Now I'm tracking my traffic differently on GSC and GA. I'm not sure how to feel about this. Is there anyone with a similar situation? Should I just go on like usual or are there things I need to start doing differently? Kindly advise. submitted by /u/Blessed_Dude_101010 [link] [comments] from Search Engine Optimization: The Latest SEO News https://ift.tt/87Z2MRA
