Swapping Homepages in WordPress

[jasongmcmahon]

Hi,

Th situation is:

• I've cloned my homepage & added new content to the cloned page
• I've then updated the WordPress settings to make the cloned page the new homepage
• Will I lose PA as the new cloned page is in effect a new article?

Hi there,

As long as the wordpress settings result in serving the new content at the root (www.example.com/ rather than www.example.com/newhomepage) then you will not risk any page authority with this change. The only change that would be visible to google in that situation would be the updated content.

Hope that helps.
