How the title said, i'm recovering a website by rewriting the articles, also recreating the url strucrue because the old one was something like: domain.com/content/224/5. I'm redirecting 301 the old article link to my new one.
My concerc is about the www to non-www. I'm not sure if i'm doing correct and if the link juice will happen? I already redirected a bunch of urls, also the main url. What do you thing guys i will have problems?
Also i can't regenerate the whole site because it's very huge and there is a bunch of very short articles, so i decided to recover the ones with the most backlinks, all others was redirecetd to homepage.
Please tell me guys if my procedure was ok?
Thank you very much
 
First of all, you should recreate the pages that matter AS THEY EXIST on the old domain (so, with their original - content/224/5 - URL slugs instead of new slugs), and also restore all other pages as much as possible. You can use a tool like https://archivarix.com to restore the website.

Then, after you've recreated everything, you should add the domain to your GSC and wait 6 months for google to pick everything up again (indexed pages, ranking pages, backlinks)

Lastly, after everything has been picked up you should do the 301 redirects
