Bumping this to ask a different related question....
Let's say you have a website with a page called services.html, and you create a copy of it called services2.html with some edits for a client to proof before it is posted "live" and overwrites the original services page.
I have always assumed that since there are no pages on the website (or anywhere else on the internet) that link to services2.html, it would not be picked up by google and the website would not be punished for duplicate content.
Google would need to crawl a webpage with a link to services2.html for it to be indexed.
Is this correct?
- that's pretty much the case, from my understanding. as long as you didn't rename the file name.JazX
- yes, it would require Google to reindex everything and at that point, they recalculate links, etc.JazX
- I'm sorry, that is even if you renamed the file name.JazX
- I hope so - I use 'hidden' pages to link work previews as clients can never ever remember bloody passwords.Nairn
- thank you!nocomply
