Are your redirected pages really disappearing from Google’s search results? Don’t be too sure!
In the image, you see a page redirected on the 20th of January. It was still shown on the 12th of February in the search results. So it took a good 3 weeks before Google finally picked it up.
Why? 🤔
Well, Google crawls your website, but not every minute!
If you update something on your page, it takes a while before Google picks it up.
How can you improve this?
✅ Reindex the (redirected) page using Google Search Console
✅ Make sure your sitemap is up to date after you insert the redirect
✅ Update your internal linking to the new page
