      Hi, I have one domain which was redirected today (the main domain,root) was redirected to a new subdomain of the main root domain.site was ranking for several keywords and had an authority of 35 on root domain. Site after 12 hours disappeared from google results.dont even rank for its brand name. What will happened to the new subdomain? Will rank again? Have the same keywords plus some more.old keywords are 3 and new are 2. For the old keywords on page optimization gets a c , and for the new a+c. For the new keywords don't have backlinks at all. When my site will start to rank for its old keywords? How long will be down ? Will pass the link juice and authority? If yes how soon ? Because I will loose to much money if stay longer like 1-2 weeks down. Thanks

        Hi Nikos,

        A simple 301 redirect should not cause your rankings to evaporate. The 301 Redirect is just signalling to search engines that they should de-index the old domain and replace the link in their index with the new one. It generally doesn't happen in less than a day either 🙂

        It seems perhaps there is a problem with the way that the redirect has been implemented, or some other completely unrelated issue that has caused a coincidental loss of rankings.

        Can you post a link to your site so that we can take a look at what is happening? If you would rather not post the link publicly, you can go to your profile and send me a private message. There are really too many possibilities to guess without taking a look at the site.

        Sha
