very helpful, I am glad you chose to answer this. pretty important in my opinion.
We hang on your every word, Matt. Your videos are gospel. #deadserious
@incrediblehelp He answered. He said they try to make sure the links to the different pages are combined accurately; that’s a yes to the link juice question. The reason he emphasizes redirects and proper architecture is because they (rightfully) don’t expect us to trust them implicitly to get it right 100% of the time.
Hi matt,
i was suprised to see that you answered this question, everybody seemed to prefer voting for other questions, thanks !
Once again Matt your response is not answering the question. He simply asked if you (Google) passed the juice when someone linked to a old or duplicate URL to the actual. Please answer yes or now. Don’t recommend site architecture changes as that has nothing to do with it.
Good question, good answer. Thanks both.
Awesome question… thanks for explaining it Matt. I’d been wondering about that myself š
yeah… “you do a very good job” we know that š
Again very usefull.
