Hey guys, I have a question concerning merging sites and the affect it has on Alexa rank. I'm merging two of my sites into a new third site. I worked hard building up the ranks on the two old sites and my question is do I lose the ranks I've built up? Also is there a way to salvage any of the work I put into boosting the ranks. I know Alexa is sometimes used to gauge the value of site and I plan on selling sometime in the future. Thanks! If the third site you will be merging them into is based on a new domain, i believe your ranking will start from scratch. As your traffic will be pretty high still(considering that you'll be 301'ing the other two sites to the third), it won't be long before your rank soars up again. Alexa rank only relates to the traffic of your website. And if you merged two domains together, it takes some time that Alexa finds the traffic of both domains is for one of them. Also you should redirect your domain by using 301 redirect to.
