Hello,
I apologize for the issue you are facing with the deleted pages and redirections. In this case, since the page "https://rankmath.com/kb/solving-redirection-issues-using-rank-math-seo/" was ranking after you set up a 410 redirect for it, you have a couple of options:
-
Re-create the Page: If the page was ranking well and you want to maintain its ranking, you can consider re-creating the page with similar or updated content. After re-creating the page, you can submit it to your sitemap to ensure it continues to rank.
-
Change the Redirect to 301: Alternatively, you can modify the 410 redirect you set up for that page to a 301 redirect to another relevant page on your website. This way, you can preserve the ranking value of the original page by redirecting it to a similar or related page.
If you choose to set up a 301 redirect instead of re-creating the original page, you may not necessarily need to re-create the original page. However, it’s essential to ensure that the new destination page provides similar or relevant content to maintain user experience and SEO value.
If you need further assistance or have any more questions, feel free to ask.
Thank you for reaching out with your concern.
