I have 2 different websites with identical sub domains, example -
invest.abc.com and invest.xyz.com, now both of these sub domains are ranking for different terms, so for 1 term only one sub domain is ranking while for other search term, another sub domain is ranking. However, I just want to keep invest.xyz.com in Google index and get rid of invest.abc.com, also to add invest.abc.com has some external links as well as being linked from other internal sites. Same with the invest.xyz.com.
So, what should be the strategy here to get rid of the duplicate subdomain which is invest.abc.com. Few suggestions comes to min -
- Noindex and nofollow?
- 301 redirect - to abc.com or to invest.xyz.com?
- Canonicals?
