How to redirect old domain to new domain.
-
We just recently signed up to Moz with hopes of fixing our Moz Ranking.
We have an old domain - http://at-net.net and a new domain - https://www.expertip.net
We have set up 301 (Permanent) redirects from all pages on the old site to the new, but aren't getting the ranking or aren't getting recognized from external links to the old sites. I've read the moz article on 'Link Juice' and followed those practices, but it doesn't seem to help. Does anyone have advice on doing this?
Thanks in advance,

if English is your default language, keep that at the root (which I already see you guys implemented- nice!) and use subfolders for the remaining languages. be sure to use hreflang markup to let crawlers know which pages are translated versions of which pages.

It comes in from a WordPress plugin for language integration. Discussing removal of this now to help us. Is multi-language bad practice for SEO? Also, thanks for your quick response.

Be sure you follow all of the steps on https://support.google.com/webmasters/answer/6033049?hl=en
your "support.at-net.net" subdomain hasn't been redirected
You have an extra 301 redirect which doesn't help. Why aren't you using your root domain as site index?
http://at-net.net --> https://www.expertip.net/ --> https://www.expertip.net/en/computer-support-cloud-services-cybersecurity-solutions/

Moving from www.domain.com/nameofblog to www.domain.com/blog
Describe your question in detail. The more information you give, the better! It helps give context for a great answer I have had my blog located at www.legacytravel.com/ramblings for a while. I now believe that, from an SEO perspective, it would be preferable to move it to www.legacytravel.com/blog. So, I want to be able to not lose any links (few though they may be) with the move. I believe I would need to do a 301 redirect in the htaccess file of www.legacytravel.com that will tell anyone who comes knocking on the door of www.legacytravel.com/ramblings/blah blah blah that now what they want is at www.legacytravel.com/blog/blah blah blah Is that correct? What would the entry look like in the htaccess? Thank you in advance.

What do I do with an old site when a new one is built?
I have a customer that has a PR 4 website with over 3000 pages of content. He decided to build a brand new website with a new domain and it now has a PR of 2. Our question is, what do we do with the old site? Do we migrate all the content over to the new site and do redirects on all the pages? Do we keep the old site up and put links over to the new site? He was just planning on shutting it down but that seemed like a complete waste of PR and SEO. What is his best course of action? Thanks for your replies.

Redirect or not to redirect
We are rebuilding a website and try to get rid of errors. The content remains exactly the same but we correct the code and make it load faster. The site has quite many backlinks and I can't decide whether to remove .html endings from the urls and 301 redirect to the new ones or leave them with the older ending. If I remove the endings how much of the link juice will be passed? Anyone any idea?
