Welcome to the Q&A Forum

You must optimize only one page. Not multiple pages.

You will have a clear idea about that after you read this great blog post, posted by Rand

How to solve the keyword cannibalization

Hi Will,

First you must have a process to redirect all the current ulrs to new domain's urls, using 301 permanent redirection. It will pass about 95 % of link juice to your new urls.

And also set the new domain on Google Webmaster Tools and set the old domains settings as you have moved your site to new domain. Hope you know how you can do it.

But I have no idea about your new website. Because of the new contents on your new urls maybe different than the current contents on current urls and up to the on page optimization of the new pages can be affects to your ranking. It maybe higher or lower. Because this is not just url updating.

Hi,

When compare you give urls seems someone have posted your shortened urls. As an example on some websites they are shortening the actual url and using as Anchor text.

As an example http://www.seomoz.org/q/wei.. but it correctly has linked to the correct page. But some users with less knowledge, they just copy the Anchor text and post those at blog posts or some other places. Because that anchor text looks like an url.

And also it can be happen because of some other site's activity.

Anyway 404 not found errors will not affect your ranking. So you do not have to worry about this problem. Also suggest you to read this help document about 404 errors.

But I can see some another problem can happen because of this kind of activity. Because if you will get any traffic from a url like that with some suffixed which you have not created. As an example a url like this

www.domain.com/latest-reviews/?refferer=some_reffer

can be have a duplicate content issue. So, I strongly recommend to add rel canonical url in to your page.

Yes, That is correct. If you setup root domain for your campaign it will show all the issues and on page report cards for all the subdomains within your root domain. That is not an issue.

When you go to the campaign setup page it clearly say that the root domain will track all the subdomains under that root domain. (See attached image) And also read Campaign Setup

If you need to track only the specific subdomain individually, you have to add them as different campaigns.

Good Luck

Yes, That is the best thing you can do. Because seems there have some other issues in configs. And we can not see from here about your all the configs. Anyway the codes we have given you will successfully work once you solve your other problems.

Hi,

The supplied url for interior page of old domain which you have mentioned not redirecting seems not correct. Because you have linked that text with the new domain. Anyway I have understand your problem. Your problem is

http://www.ccisound.com

is redirecting to

http://www.ccisolutions.com

but

http://www.ccisound.com/StoreFront/category/cd-duplicators

is not redirecting to

http://www.ccisolutions.com/StoreFront/category/cd-duplicators

If I have understood correctly, the solution for your problem is, Do a wildcard 301 redirection. It will redirects all the inner pages to the new domain's inner pages. But all the inner pages in new site, must have the same paths as the old site. Hope you understand what I mean.

Anyway when look in to the example urls you have provided it seems both sites have the same content. So there is nothing to worry about. Seems you have just changed domain name.

So anyway use the following code in your .htaccess file inside your root folder

RewriteEngine on

Options +FollowSymLinks

RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^ccisound.com$ [OR]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^www.ccisound.com$
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ "http://www.ccisolutions.com/$1" [R=301,L]

First and second line do not write again if those already written inside your .htaccess file.

the above code will initiate a wildcard 301 redirection and will solve your problem. Hope you can improve the code for all the other domains you have. Otherwise post here. I will do it for you.

Hi,

I think you are doing so many mistakes. First take out all the other codes from your .htaccess file. Then copy only one code from me or from Ersin. While you have some other codes related to this domains redirection there may have conflicts. And your current code work for your root domains mean your .htaccess redirection is working. The problem is you have not used it correctly.
