SEO Advice when moving domains/Webflow Setup

Yes. For X time also keep the old site (Why? Because if something goes wrong - you have “backup” instead of 404 + Its take some time for google to re-index).

Case 1 (same slug)

  • muse site - slug: /about
  • webflow site - slug: /about

…rest of the pages with same slug (No need for 301 under webflow only “redirect the entire site” (Domain setting))

Case 2 - diff slug

  • muse: /team
  • webflow: /our-team

In this case - redirect the entire site + add 301 (Otherwise you get 404)

Case 3 - remove page

  • muse: /services/web-design
  • webflow: no such page

Add 301 (From /services/web-design to the most relevant page). Over time google will remove /services/web-design from search results (Fetch as google to speed up this).
