Question : Keyword / Rank / New blog

port the articles ... .make a post in your blogspot.. about the new venue of your site...

rank will only be affected after making other post i mean that after making some new post in your wordpress blog..

I think you should post them in your wordpress blog and delete the original posts from blogspot. Create a placeholder post in the old blog for redirecting users to the new one. Retaining the old posts instead of removing them is not a good idea, Google will soon notice the duplicate content and since their 'spider' is not as witty as 'Spiderman', it'll reduce the pagerank of new blog considerably.

+1

i get a solid 2.5k traffic on blogspot daily...

and i think its all becoz of links pllaced in variuos sites..
wht shall i do guys..

u were right...debsuvra..

i google spiders see there are duplicate contents .. it will considerably reduce the page rank ....


any other way ??

See labnol used to be on blogspot earlier when it moved to self hosted platform, they didnt delete the earlier posts and i am pretty sure till date they must be getting a decent amount of hits and money from that old blogspot blog.

So, if you are really worried about page rank and stuff, you can avoid porting the posts, but just give a message on top of blogspot blog saying you moved the site, giving a link back.

ok... thnks guys...

ported them..

and planning to upate post differently on both the blogs... just for traffic...



thnks for the advice guys... really helpful...
