301 or rel con ?

[jdcline]

OK should I use 301 or rel can for a page that has a mox authority of 50 (PR5) and some links into it? Do I do it to the home page or do I do it to the revelant page? If I rel con or 301 using a php script in the header of the page do I leave the content on the page or do I remove everything?

This is in response to last friday.

Do I 301 all the pages to the top 5 pages that have been getting all the traffic, or do I leave some if most of them are or marketing?

I may need a little more information to answer completely but my short response is this.

• 301 redirect if you would like both search engines and end users to be transfered to the new page
• Rel con if you would like end users to stay and search engines to be transfered to the new page

What is the reason for the update? Solely for SEO purposes or migrating to a new site?

Got hit on Friday, and am affraid I have some duplicate content pages, so we are going to send them to their approiate page.

We also have 30 or 40 pages that are just for keyword ranking, and since friday hit I am under the impression that google is puttin more emphasis on the entire site and ranking the site as a whole and not just each page, so the thought is to 301 the marketing pages.

the marketing pages are seo moz trust 50 have a PR5 so I hate to do anyting with them, but we took a huge hit on friday and I am desperate. our busy season starts in 5 days AHHH!
