Hey, Neil, I verified both the non-www and www version of my domain name in the google search console. I actually use a domain name with www version and I also had set it to display with the same www version in google search console's preferred domain name. My website is not older than 1 month till date. Now is it necessary to use 301 redirects for such a cause? Waiting for your reply... :)

[@neilpatel]

You should still add the 301 just in case people link to the non-www version.

[@santosh43able]

hy ya Neil I use a plugin called "All 404 to Homepage" to redirect all my 404 to homepage. will that affect my SEO in any way?? By the way my blog isn't that big atm.

[@neilpatel]

Should help. Which is a good move. But you need to remove the internal links to those 404 pages.

[@sanjayrshinde]

Thanks Neil.

You are welcome Sanjay.

Can you do a video about the hidden versions of a homepage that can cause duplicate content issues (homepage.com/index.php, homepage.com/home.html for example)

[@neilpatel]

Thanks for the suggestion, Karl. I'll keep that in mind for future videos. :-)

[@fredsbox15]

I've purchased 5 x domain names and put a 301 link straight to my existing domain (the one I've been using) is this going to cause me a problem with reach? please tell me not or I'll cry!!

[@neilpatel]

You should be fine as long as those 5 domain names didn't have Google issues before.

[@fredsbox15]

Thanks - really appreciate all of your help. I watch all your videos and read your blogs I find them so useful. Thanks

[@neilpatel]

Glad they are helpful. :)

[@fredsbox15]

[@neilpatel]

You made my day :)

[@kenankaraca2415]

hi, i have changed my pages' url with yoast seo. but i forget to save old urls. then my ranking is suddenly decreased. pls help to 301 redirect my old urls to new....

[@neilpatel]

Maybe use Archive.org (way back machine) to see what your old URLs were and then add a 301 redirect.

[@dipakvadhadiya1558]

Hey Neil Thanks for this important information but i have one suggestion for you about reach more views, now you share video with awesome content. i got this video on my inbox because i subscribe your channel and in this email there is a content about 301 and 302 redirect information i just read it and not need to seen this information on video, but for this suggestion i came here and write it, so if you not write that much content than i think video views number will good. Thanks Cheers! :) - Dipak Patel

[@neilpatel]

[@neilpatel]
