Welcome to the Q&A Forum

Hi Billy,

I read through your question and it appears it's been 6 months since this post. I wondered how things were going here?

Did you effectively canonicalize your old pages to your new URLs with Anchor Links?

We may be in the process of doing the same thing so just wanted to ask for an update on your outcome?

Thanks

I am tasked with optimizing a US site for a company that has many international sites.  Currently, if you search for just the main company name and don't include "USA" in your search, it won't even give you the US site on the SERP.  It displays the Italian, French, etc etc sites - even though I'm searching on Google in the US with a preferred language of Engilsh.  Unfortunately I don't have any control over the other sites, only the US one. Is there anything I can add to the US site (aside from setting the country code in GSC) so that when someone searches from within the USA, they get the US site and not all of the other ones?

thanks!

You are correct, BOTW isnt one of them- it is currently marked in LinkDetox as a "toxic" link
