Hello, Webmaster,
A couple of days back, Google has come up with another tool update for Google Search Console. We have already discussed how to Resolve issues found with review snippets in Search Console.
This time around, Google has rolled out new features for the Search Console’s Change of Address Tool. This will help users to make a transition from one domain to another.
What is the Change of Address Tool?
A change of address tool in Search Console basically allows users to notify Google for any possible change of website address such as example.com changed to example2.com. It helps users to move Search Console’s data from one domain or subdomain to another smoothly.
Let’s understand what Google will do with your change of address request?
When you notify Google about your change of website address, Google will give priority to your new domain for crawling and indexing tasks instead of old domain. Once you submit a request in Google Search Console for site move, Google will start forwarding signals from your old domain to a new domain address.
What are the new features added to the Change of Address Tool?
- Validation of redirect URLs
When you are making a transition from one domain to another, you must set up the 301 redirect URLs from your old URL to the new URL. Now, as per the new update, Google Search Console’s change of address tool can validate the website’s top 5 URL redirects.
