: Merge two domains with 301 redirect I have two domains (.com and .co.uk) with different websites. In .co.uk domain I have a good ranking and my idea is to redirect the .co.uk domain to .com.

I have two domains (.com and .co.uk) with different websites. In .co.uk domain I have a good ranking and my idea is to redirect the .co.uk domain to .com. I think I have to use 301 redirect.

My questions is, I have two different websites, the two websites are different but with the same categories and some products, I have to create only one redirect of home to home or a should create other pages like similar products, categories and other similar pages in both sites?

The created backlinks usually goes to homepage, so I thought I just needed to redirect the homepage.

I don't want to lose the ranking and have problems with Google crawl.

If possible, you should find the best matching redirect for any URL - this will give search engine visitors the best experience. Google likes good experience for their users, too :)

i.e. it would definitely be better to 301 every single product page to its respective product page at the actual site.

If you want remove from Google index the .co.uk, you should apply 301 redirect from all pages on .co.uk to all similar pages on .com (even if all your backlinks come to your .co.uk homepage). Addition to SEO, don't forget to think about users.
