Google DMCA takedown - workarounds

[cocolito]

Hi guys,

I hope Im posting this on the right section.
My website has been removed by google due a DMCA report. I was on top page for few keywords and now they are all gone because of this, it sucks. As per the Google report I can see google has hidden the links such as https://www.mydomain.tld or https://www.mydomain.tld/link1 https://www.mydomain.tld/link2, etc, the root domain (without www) isn't included.

I was wondering if someone have ever tried moving or redirecting all the content from https://www.mydomain.tld to for example https://mydomain.tld (without the www) or to https://www2.mydomain.tld and request re-index of the whole site. Does this work or do I just need to give up and buy a new domain?

Any advise is appreciated.

Is it worth doing this?
You will get DMCA it fast too.
Maybe it is better to fight back that DMCA claim - if possible.

Yes it happen to me.
Move to www1 , www2, and so on (it only works with wwwNUMBER)

Then redirect with 301 www to www1 via htaccess / and make the changes in cloudflare also if you use cloudflare.

And in the future STOP redirecting all dead or 404 links to homepage. <<-- IF you do this thing, that's why you get DMCA on homepage. If not, it is what it is...

FOR www1 - make new email, new webmastertools account, put the new www1 on the new webmaster account, put the sitemap, etc - AND delete the dmca hit version website from webmaster tools after everything is done!
