Legacy URL Redirect to Save Your Old Links

Old URL preservation SEO digs through the Wayback Machine and historical sitemaps to find every address that ever earned authority. Omeiro builds a catalogue of those URLs, scores them by backlink value and redirects the important ones before a redesign erases them.

Why Omeiro

Old URL preservation: which legacy pages are worth saving

Not every old address deserves a redirect, which is why old url preservation scores pages before acting. Candidates include pages that still receive backlinks, ones that once ranked, and addresses that appear in press or partner sites. Before ordering, tell us when the site launched, any earlier platforms or domains and where old sitemaps or backups are kept. That history shows us where to dig in the archives.

Choosing the destination matters as much as finding the URL. A redirect should lead to the closest matching page, not the home page, or the link value tends to be discounted. Some old pages have no equivalent and are better left to return an error. Careful old url preservation records each decision so a future redesign does not repeat the loss, and it flags links worth asking the linking site to update.

In short

  • Delivery in 3 to 10 days, by package.
  • Fixed price, shown before you order.
  • Older businesses redesigning after a decade online.
