Can I ask why do a redirect from MRL to GBL and not the other way around? I think there is more value in the MRL domain, so if it is an option to keep it I would.

Hi,

The GBL brand name has a good name and good recurring online sales, also the website prices on GBL are greater than MRL.. Pls the product range is slimmer.

Fully agree with Monica.

If the sites are that different, I would say don't redirect either of them. I understand that conversion is important, but you can always improve conversion rate. Just redirecting MRL to GBL will not move GBL to the number one position. It is a tough decision but I wouldn't redirect GBL to MRL. To me it doesn't make sense. If you have to redirect it, then to answer your question, there really isn't an optimal time to do so. If you think this is the best time, then I would do that.

Ive gone ahead and made the change earlier than advised and to my amazement weve converted 4 sales from visitors clicking mrlogodesign and landing on gblogodesign via our live chat software.

I do understand your thoughts and concerns on the matter but the MRL website was bringing in low value work, ill update you guys with my new rank positions in the next few weeks!

That makes sense! Best of luck!

Just to update you all, it went through fine GBL now ranks #1 for all MRL terms, e.g cheap logo design

Thanks!
