🚨 Important Tip for Fellow Students! 🚨 I learned this the hard way, so I’m sharing it to save you from the same mistake. Once you submit your website to Google Search Console, do not delete any pages, especially your homepage or key URLs. I made the mistake of deleting a page after submission, and it cost me a lot — I lost my visibility on Google, and had to start over with indexing and fixing errors. 👉 Lesson: Before submitting your site, double-check that everything is final. After submission, only update, don’t delete. 💡 Google tracks what you submit. Deleting a page after submission can lead to crawl errors, "Page Not Found" issues, and damage your SEO progress. Let’s build smart, not start over. 💪 #MaxBusinessSchool #DigitalMarketingTip #GoogleSearchConsole #WebsiteMistake #LearnFromExperience

This might help someone. How to Structure Your Post Here’s an outline to make your post informative and engaging: 🔍 What Happened? - Without realizing the impact, I changed my WordPress tag from Digital Marketing to Online Growth. - After the change, Google Search Console flagged my old tag page (/tag/digital-marketing/) as a Soft 404 error (meaning Google couldn’t find relevant content). - My new tag (/tag/online-growth/) has not yet been indexed, meaning it hasn’t appeared in Google Search. ⚠️ Key SEO Issues I Faced ✅ Loss of Indexed Pages – The old tag was already indexed, and the new one had to start from zero. ✅ Soft 404 Errors – Google treated the old tag as a missing page, which can harm SEO. ✅ Internal Link Problems – Posts tagged under "Digital Marketing" were no longer linked properly. 💡 Lessons Learned ✔️ If a tag is already indexed, changing it requires proper redirects (301 Redirects). ✔️ Google doesn’t immediately recognize the new tag, so manual re-indexing is needed. ✔️ SEO rankings can drop if changes aren’t managed properly. 🚀 My Fix & Best Practices 1️⃣ I decided to switch back to "Digital Marketing" to keep my SEO value. 2️⃣ If you must change a tag, redirect the old tag URL to the new one using a WordPress plugin like Redirection. 3️⃣ Always check Google Search Console for errors after making changes. 4️⃣ Update internal links and sitemap to reflect the new tag. 🔗 Share Your Thoughts! - Have you ever faced a similar issue? - How do you handle SEO when restructuring categories or tags?
