: Should we have two copies of the same content or do a redirect? We are a web app for icons and we've got 2 versions of our app: Old one with icon URLs like http://icons8.com/icons/#!/73/home

We are a web app for icons and we've got 2 versions of our app:


Old one with icon URLs like icons8.com/icons/#!/73/home
New one with icon URLs like icons8.com/web-app/73/Home

Both apps are useful; the old one works well on mobile, while the new is not responsive yet.

What should we do?


Keep both copies
Do redirects from old to new
Much harder way — make new app responsive and replace the old app with a new one

If, as you say, both apps are useful, you should keep them both.

However from what I see, the new one should be an evolution of the first, no? If so, you would be upgrading the first to the second, keeping only one.

I would upgrade the new one, make it responsive, look great and then keep just one, upgrading the first. For this you would keep the same URL so no redirected needed.
