server.war2.ru -> www.server.war2.ru -> en.war2.ru

[iL]

That's what mousEtopher told about:

Now server and site for server are splitted to different hostings.
There were 2 names: server.war2.ru was the main site and www.server.war2.ru was redirect to it pointed to the same ip.
Now www.server.war2.ru is default and server.war2.ru is being redirected to it.

Nothing should be changed for you, everything should go transparent. You can open server of www.server and see the same site.
This is just a technical moment.

You know if you dont make a 301-redirect you may be punished by Google for double content. One option is to put a canonical tag on one of the URL but it's not quite optimal.

server.war2.ru is better nobody uses www for subdomains.

[I hate naggers]

low quality and flamish, but not warn/move_to_flame worthy imo. I threw two related names, kinda provoked, they responded (so calling me names is forgiven), thats all

[SmurfKinG]

im not responsible nor am i talking to the replies inside the thread but the thread topic itself.

[I hate naggers]

your question is retarded then, why would it be flame? its not flame, its about server.war2.ru. SMITED! LOL

Sure, i see. Looks like it's internal redirect by WordPress, maybe even 301. At least you can try to open server and be redirected to www.

server.war2.ru is better nobody uses www for subdomains.

Sure, but i have no choice, i have to split bnet and site to different hostings, so different domain names, bnet name is not possible to change, so i had to change the site name.

plz read and reply this

Ok, i'll check that, thx

www.war2.ru is needed for the Russians?

www.war2.ru is needed for the Russians?

yes, and it's well-advertised site.

I thought about some kind of merging between war2.ru and server.war2.ru, but i'm not sure we can do that

[GaNzTheLegend]

I would rather leave the russian one if it gets alot of activity

[mousEtopher]

Since the URL is changing and we have to do a 301 redirect anyway, why not change it to something unique like en.war2.ru? (Or war2.ru/en/, doesn't really matter.) That would prevent potential confusion between the two very similar URLs, and it's still transparent for users because of 301 redirect from server.war2.ru to the new URL. As long as you do the 301 redirect Google will pick up on the change and replace server.war2.ru in SERPs with the new URL either way.

My idea was to keep URLs very similar, but maybe you right, we can make en.war2.ru if you think it's better.
Need to think about that.

Now moved to en.war2.ru.

Should work as redirect, so that should be trasnparent for everybody.
You can try server.war2.ru/any page or www.server... and will be redirected to en.
