      I have a global page for our site but the global site has the exact same content as the main navigation personal page. If I redirect /index to /personal how much seo damage are we doing?

        I wouldn't suggest redirecting a homepage to another site if you still want to rank that original domain for stuff. It's just showing G that you're not taking that domain as serious as you are others.

        Hope this helps 🙂 If it does please send a like. Thanks!
