Should I revive an old website or start fresh for SEO?

Hi everyone,

In 2020, I created a website with just one article that used to get ~100 monthly visits. I later put the site in maintenance mode (all pages showed a black screen) and left it inactive for almost 3 years.

Now, I’m planning to restart the project, and I’m torn between reviving this old site (4-5 years old domain) or creating a brand-new one.

Questions: - Does the domain’s age still help with SEO despite years of inactivity? - Could Google have “deprioritized” the site due to inactivity? - Would relaunching the old site be an SEO advantage or a potential disadvantage?

Any advice or steps to check the site’s current SEO status (and potential Google penalties) would be greatly appreciated!

Thank you!

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
