I'm trying to relocate a few select posts from my blogger URL to my new blog located in a Wix website. I'm trying to use the meta refresh tag to get my SEO transfered for each of my blogger posts.
Blogger does not provide 301 redirects outside of the blogger domain. Hence I'm using the meta refresh tags.
I notice that Wix's blog pages have Ajax based URL links. Should I be providing the URL (of the Wix post) in the Meta Refresh tag (in the blogger post) with the "#!" or should the URL in the meta refresh be the one with "?_escaped_fragment_"?
Which of these URLs will transfer the SEO from the blogger post to the Wix post?
If you intend to preserve the link profile and search engine optimisation value of the posts, then a Meta refresh cannot quite replace a 301 redirect.
To answer your question, though, Google can deal with hashbang (#!) as well as escaped fragments, depending on how the Wix site is coded. You should definitely refer to Google's guide to making AJAX crawlable:
https://developers.google.com/webmasters/ajax-crawling/docs/learn-more
Use the following code in head tag:
<noscript>
<meta http-equiv="Refresh" content="3;url=yourpage.html">
</noscript>
Google can understand #!
sign. That would not be a problem.
If you query site:www.[something-made-with-wix].com
on Google, You'll see all the links in the form of #!
in the results.
You can try this one as an example.
