Re: Two different domains: Duplicate content problem

Hello

Just shut down the URL that you no longer want and the algorithm will automatically correct the issue you speak of. The active domain will not follow and replace the old domains as they die off over the next few weeks, within the SERPS.

It may take some time depending on the level of penalty you received and your crawl rate. I would go to webmaster tools and ask that both sites be crawled as soon as they are positioned and the dying URL has been parked at the registrar. Expect several months before any real traction begins.

Hi All experts,

I have two domains live on web - xyz.com & abc.com. Both are pointing to same website so creating the issue of duplicate content. when i am searching random content snippet in Google, It shows me abc.com in search results. But mu original domain is xyz.com. I want xyz.com to appear in search results.

I cannot apply meta noindex tag in abc.com.

So what I have done- I closed the domain abc.com so it is no more live on web.

Will it make appear xyz.com in search results for the same content ?

Will it solve the problem of duplicate content ?


Please let me have clarification on this issue



Thanks in advance
