Blogger does not offer a possibility to 301 redirect a post (or the whole blog) to an external domain name (say mydomain.com
). One is suggesting to use some zero second meta refresh tags in the header to solve this issue.
Is this practice accepted by Google and other search engines regarding SEO? Will the PageRank and signals coming to the old post be transferred to the new post on mydomain.com
?
REM: Setting mydomain.com
as the domain name of my Blogger blog is not an option. I am also aware about the Javascript solution, but this is not accepted by Google. Alternative solutions are also welcome is they are valid for a SEO point of vue.
P.S.: It has been a bit more than 2 weeks that I use this method and Google does not complain. Links are forwarded properly when I check in the Google Search Console.
