How to fix it?
-
I have a website on Wix with the domain spinteedubai.com. But I want to transfer the same website into the wordpress.
In order for me to transfer the current domain www.spinteedubai.com from Wix to Hostgator, there is a 60 day waiting period. Which means, i will not be able to transfer until April 1, 2014.
So, in terms of next steps and impact on SEO , what do you suggest we do ?
1. Wait till April and transfer the current domain name ?
2. Register another domain and put the site up immediately while keeping the wix site (so we would have for example: www.spintee.ae &www.spinteedubai.com. But my understanding is that google does not like to see 2 site exactly the same. -
How long has the current site been live Varun? If it is just a few weeks / months, then you could just build a new site from scratch on Wordpress, but I would advise taking the old site down as soon as you have the new site live. Don't have two versions of the same thing in Google.
That said, if the current site has links pointing to it or is already ranking well, I would wait out the 2 months as you should take all of that over with you.
