My international domain nightmare

Hi all - I have an Australian .com.au shopify online store that I also own the .co.nz to. Last year in an effort to rank better with NZ customers I used hreflang tags to have both a .co.nz and .com.au presence. I also now have two merchant center feeds, allowing me to show my products with a .co.nz in google ads. However shopify has no way of neatly converting prices for shipping so essentially a nz customer will always know it's an Aus company. I don't want to be cloak and dagger either, I just initially did it for search reasons. I've seen minimal change so far and it's hard to tell what trend is what with a huge rise in online shopping over the pandemic anyway.

So my question is would you expect a .co.nz domain to rank so much better in a google nz search engine (.com.au competitors to rank in google nz) that warrants a lot of extra pain and headache? Managing the multiple feeds takes a special app which is buggy and its just all extra headache, and you can argue it's less clear to a nz shopper.

Thanks!

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? Thanks all! submitted by /u/runtmc2 [link] [comments] from Search Engine Optimization: The Latest SEO News https://ift.tt/31dJ82b

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
