Welcome to the Q&A Forum

We are moving about 5000 pages from root into different folders. We need to individually 301 each page because the are sitting at root level now:

mysite.com/page.com

We want to move them to: mysite.com/folder/page.html etc

I dont think redirect match can works because of the different files names and folders they are being moved in to.

Will 5000 entries in .htacess slow site loading? Any other suggestions how to handle?

I have a main site - mysite.com. I just created a subdomain - leadform.mysite.com

I plan to use the leadform.mysite.com as a 1 page lead form only.

I will link to leadform.mysite.com from mysite.com and also from other websites I own (myothersite.com etc.) - filtering all traffic to this form to capture leads.

(Note - the leadform.mysite.com has CNAME to other server that hosts the backend of the form)

My questions are:

1. How should I link from mysite.com to leadform.mysite.com? With dofollow or nofollow? (mysite.com has 1000's of pages and would link from every page with "get a quote' type button)

2) How should I link from myothersite.com to leadform.mysite.com? With dofollow or nofollow? Any SEO risk linking to leadform.mysite.com from an outside domain? (myothersite.com has 1000's of pages and would link from every page with "get a quote' type button)

3. Does it make sense to build links from outside sites to leadform.mysite.com directly to try to get that lead capture page to rank on it's own?

4) Does it make sense to link back from leadform.mysite.com back to mysite.com for seo value? With dofollow or nofollow?

Thanks in advance for any help.
