You'd be surprised how often this happens. A common solution is to implement link redirects, but too many internal redirects can be detrimental to a website's crawlability, as it takes Google an extra step to effectively crawl each link. Do it the right way by replacing the links with live URLs vs. redirects. #WebsiteLaunch #SEOTips #Redirects
