Google: moving a conversion web page for just 3 months is too short

We realize that Google for extra years he instructed us we must have on-web page conversions for 12 months or so for Google to preserve the site transferring. But how many months is simply too little, too little? John Mueller of Google stated that a three-month transition to a redirect is not sufficient and you actually need to hold it for a year.

John stated on Twitter “I suggest which you preserve the old area call for a long term and make certain to keep the conversions for as a minimum a year. Three months is too brief to move a website.”

more for next time (you surely can’t repair this now), I advocate preserving the antique domain name longer and simply preserve the conversions for as a minimum a yr. 3 months is simply too quick to relocate the city.

Google said it might try antique redirects years and years, so if the redirect disappears, it could signal some thing new to Google.

so that you fight, you combat to hold the ones diversions for at the least a year.
