301 Redirects and Link Juice! A question to be answered!
- SEO |
I have two websites in my arsenal from a while ago.
web1.com and web2.com
Initially web1.com was my main-site for about 3-5 months before I took down due to...my feeling like it and I 301 redirected web1.com to web2.com
web2.com is used for personal whatnots with very little to none backlinking; and crap onsite SEO.
However, I recently noticed that web2.com has a PR of 1
and here comes the kicker
so does web1.com
now I KNOW that web1.com had a PR of 0 when I took it down and 301 redirected to web2.com
So the question is
Did the sites share or take juice from each other?
Or is it simply domain age? (web2.com is an older domain a fortnight over 1 year old; web1.com is 8 months old)
MajesticSEO puts web2.com at 1,880 backlinks and web1.com at 80 backlinks
Most other put web2.com at 10-20 backlinks and web1.com at 0-1 backlinks
Yes, I know PR1 is crap, but still...
