Reusing content from 2 old sites on a new domain
- SEO |
Please help me out with what I should do in the scenario below...
The question is that I have 2 websites in the same health niche. I bought them since 2013 and was hiring guys to do seo on them. They got all the links you can think about ranging from pbns to blog comments to web 2.0s to social shares etc etc.
One site has 2 pages ranking on first page of Google and the other site has one page ranking on the first page of Google. These posts are super long with over 4000 words each of quality content.
Also these sites are not hit with any penalty from Google as the links going to them are not too much. One domain has 77 referring domains with 500 referring pages and the other has 112 referring domains with 800 referring pages. But if you look at the link quality, I must admit they look spammy and not good quality.
The thing is that i bought a new domain recently and I would like to move the 3 pages of these sites that are already ranking on the first page of Google to the new domain. I plan to make this domain clean and only use white hat seo.
Now I'm worried if in the future if these 2 domains can break me bad luck ie. get hit by a Google penalty. I plan to do a 301 redirect from these three pages to the new domain and also take down these 2 websites. The redirect will be in the .htaccess file.
Also another strategy I'm I thinking about is to submit to Google in my webmaster dashboard to de-index these two sites and reuse these 3 pieces of content on my new domain.
What would you suggest? Thank you for your valuable time and advice.
Thank You.
