How to Merge Duplicate Products Without Losing SEO Value

9/19/2024 • 1 min read
  1. Pick the product you want to keep as the master.
  2. Copy over details (images, variants, descriptions) from the duplicate.
  3. Redirect the duplicate URL:
    • Go to Online Store > Navigation > URL Redirects.
    • Add old product URL → master product URL.
  4. Archive the duplicate product.

✅ Tip: Never delete without a redirect — you’ll lose rankings and backlinks.
