6 Major Negative Effects Of Switching Late From To Dot Com by bongolistik(m): 6:54pm On Oct 23, 2015 |
Here are the 6 major things that you will lose as a blogger in blogger platform whenever you finally decided to switch from to custom domain. 1. Traffic Especially if you have good number of search engine traffic on your previous sub domain blog. If your blog has some good number of search engine traffic and you switch it to a custom domain, be ready to lose almost half of your search engine traffic, as this happens because your custom domain is new and still lacks authority. Some of your previous webpages that have been automatically redirected to your new custom domain will sink down in search ranking, thereby causing a serious drop in your traffic. But note that it will not affect you must of your traffic are referral or social media traffic. 2. Google + Comments If you made the mistake of enabling Google + comment system in your previous blog, all your blog pages comments will be tied to the domain, and if you finally switch to custom domain, you will lose all the comments in your new domain. So it is always advisable to use your blogger default commenting section when using and if you must enable the Goole + commenting system, then wait until you have started using your custom domain before enabling it from your Blogger dashboard interface. 3. Hosted Adsense Ads If you are running hosted Adsense ads and the ads are displaying on your previous blog as expected, you should be rest assured that when you switch to custom domain, Adsense ads will stop displaying, unless you upgrade the Adsense account to a non-hosted account. 4. Social media shares The default social media shares of a blogger blog consist of Google +, email, Facebook and Twitter, and so if you are enjoying good share counts on your previous blogopot sub domain, and you finally switch to a custom domain, those share counts will all be reset to zero. It happens that way because the share button and counts are also attached to the subdomain. 5. Alexa Rank and Backlinks Yes, you will definitely lose your google Alexa ranking and backlinks in your new custom domain after switching from blogstpo sub domain as your domain is now new and Alexa sees it as if you are starting up a new blog entirely. All your backlinks will also disappear as those previous backlinks are tied to your previous sub domain. 6. Page Rank For sure even as we all know that Google Page Rank is dead, but if your previous subdomain has any page rank at all, you will lose it in your new domain.
