Hi guys

I'm planning to shift a blog from a subdomain to a top domain. So basically in google's eyes it's like 2 urls

There is some existing content on the subdomain. If I shift it over to the main domain, will google see it as duplicate content?

I tried 301 redirect for something before. But a year on, Google still crawls my old site.

What's the best way to do this? Thanks!

    If you 301 redirect the entire subdomain Google should not bother with it after a while. If you leave parts there they obviously continue to crawl it.

    It's not duplicate content if you do the redirects. You're saying "Hey Google, moved this page to this new address."

    Who told me this? An ex Google web spam engineer.

    What's your excuse?
