Welcome to the Q&A Forum

Thanks. It was kind of a non-answer by Mr. Cutts. Ha

I am currently having analytics issues where the non-secured (http) front end of my site is not properly communicating to the backend (https) of my site.

When a user jumps between the the secured and non-secured, it will display as a bounce in GA and I get duplicate visits. GA has a work around for this but it is messy and not working.

So my question is, has anyone had good/bad experiences moving a non-secured site over to the secured side?

Thanks!

Working with a company that is considering moving to a new domain and wanted some advice.They have 2 domains (they own both) and one is a shorter version of the other.

The current domain is over 10 years old and has a domain authority score of 80. It is 9 characters long.

The new domain (which they also own) has a DA score of 43 and is only 3 characters long.

The debate is as much about branding as anything but there is a concern on how it will affect search.

I was hoping for so advice and any pitfalls others may have experienced.

Thanks!!

Came across an interesting problem. A site has the traditional homepage of site.com and ranks okay.

Later I found that another "homepage", site.com/home.html that ranks well for several terms but actually has old branding and semi-up-to-date content.

Site.com/home.html has a solid linking profile but not as strong as the current homepage (site.com).

The question I have is should I try to salvage the page or 301 redirect to site.com?

Thank for the help!
