Welcome to the Q&A Forum

During a site move, a sub domain of website a redirected all pages to the homepage of website b.

resulting a homepage algorithmic penalty for website b.

The sub domain was deleted - and the sitemove for the main domain went through ok.

However website b has 80,000 incoming links from the sub domain of website a.

is there anything else that needs to be done to "inform" google that the mistake was fixed?

After links have been removed from site a to site b.

How long will it take until site b will see it in the webmaster tools that the links to his site are no longer there?

Hey Chris,

Thanks for the quick response.

When you do:

site: domain.com there is no problem

when you search for domain.com + keyword on the site as well, no problem.

but when you search for domain.com google recommends domain.org

and when you search for the word "domain" the site is no where to be found even though there is no strong competition. so it's really strange

Hello everyone

Please advice what to do in a situation when searching for a domain: www.domain.com google is recommending domain.org ? when these are completely 2 different sites? Does it has to do with trust rank?

Please advice.

Hello,

Are there any technical solutions to duplicate content similar to the nofollow tag?

A tag which can indicate to Google that we know that this is duplicate content but we want it there because it makes sense to the user.

Thank you.
