Welcome to the Q&A Forum

Hi Chris

Thanks for your response.

Do you feel that 301 re-directing all 3 sites into 1 is a viable solution? Are there any pitfalls to be aware of?

Our client has circa 3000 products on site.

Thank you!

Hey all,

I have an SEO conundrum that seems to have no right or wrong answer.   If you have 2 minutes I’d love to hear your opinion.

The Situation
Our client has 4 ecommerce sites (Sites A, B, C & D) all selling the same products.
He wishes to to merge all 4 sites into a single site (Site A)

Options
In order to maintain maximum SEO authority do we:

A - Choose a single site (B, C, or D)  with the most SEO authority/juice/power and 301 re-direct it into Site A
Or
B – 301 re-direct all 3 sites (B, C & D)  into Site A

Our experience says that 301’ing from a single site works well, but from multiple sites feels spammy and risky.

Really keen too hear your thoughts.
