Hi all.

I'm a bit confused here. For ages I wondered if it was possible to create a javascript redirect from a high authority site, such as let's say plus.google.com/page. After much testing I found a way to do it.

So I then checked how it renders in Google's Mobile Testing Tool and it works fine (shows the moneysite, not the Google Plus page, i.e. redirect works).

So I therefore assumed it will work, as Googlebot follows the javascript redirect clearly. But 2 weeks later and still no improvement in rankings for my moneysite - does it take time, or am I wasting my time? I thought a redirect from a Google property with DA of 94 would at least see some improvements!
 
Hmm, Back to the drawing board I guess. Does anyone know why a redirect from a high-authority property might not work? It is not blocked with CORS, I checked it.
