Ecommerce website - Transition from one subdomain to another. Please help!

[Malika1]

Hi MOZers,

I have an ecommerce website with its mobile version of the site sitting in a subdomain. It is going to be transferred to another subdomain on the same website.

How do I ensure that I save/carry over most of the traffic, authority and equity to the new sudomain?

At the moment, we are not looking to get rid of the subdomain but maybe later, yes.

Personally, I'd say to make 100% sure all your 301 redirects are placed properly, and that each old URL is redirected to the absolute best new URL to get the user what they're looking for.
