Hi I just migrated our discourse install from a subdomain to a subfolder. Yes, I know it’s not recommended, however we saw a significant (50%) drop in organic search traffic after moving our forums (and we’re sure there is no other cause). So after a lot of messing about I have it working well, ho…

OK, answering my own post as it might help someone else. The answer (or at least, something that appears to work) is to uncheck the “Reverse rewrite host in response headers” in Application Request Routing on IIS [ReverseRewriteHost] I’m not 100% sure this is the correct way to resolve this, as…

Moving our forums out to a sub domain caused us major ranking issues, and resulted in a dramatic loss of organic search traffic. I knew about the whole seo subdomain vs subfolder issue before we made the move, but thought it was a bit exaggerated. We were desperate to replace our old forum software…

Did you have redirects set up properly? Our migrated customers don’t have this experience, so it is likely something wasn’t right in the setup. I think your subfolder suffering has only begun, as far as troubleshooting and issues. There is a reason we only do this when held at gunpoint paid substan…

Yes, redirects were/are setup correctly and were working fine (and were tested regularly, especially once we noticed the organic drop off). As for suffering, well that was certainly the case over the last day or so, it all seems to be working quite nicely now. It’s running as a subfolder under a d…

In the past five years not one of the communities we’ve worked with has seen any SEO hit as a result of the above. Google has publicly stated that subfolder vs subdomain has no impact on SEO, something that Jeff has also reached out and had confirmed directly. You’re wasting your time creating comp…

This is not entirely true, there is usually a natural drop off when you migrate a community due to the change in URLs and reindexing content in a new format. But things come back after a while if you give it 6 months or so, and then go back upward — because you are replacing a very old and busted so…

Was it a coincidence that we saw such a massive drop within weeks of migrating from a subfolder to a subdomain. Quite possibly, but look at from my point of view. What did I change, what can I control (since I can’t control what google do). I’m desperate to reverse the trend, if the subfolder makes …

[صورة] vincentp: Was it a coincidence that we saw such a massive drop within weeks of migrating from a subfolder to a subdomain. What kind of redirects did you put in place? Type, quantity, granularity, etc.

Almost every topic from the old forums /support/forums/aft/123 <<old forums redirects to sub.domain.com/t/what-ever/4545 using 301 redirects 6000 topics.
