Following the problem with embedded frames now more strict in recent
browsers, I have moved the Gambas web site to the wiki server.

'gambas.sourceforge.net' now redirects to 'gambaswiki.org/website'.

No. To 'https://sourceforge.net/projects/gambas/' which looks totally outdated.

I think Sourceforge does not like redirections and also prevents embedding of foreign content. They want to keep the link juice which makes them more mighty.

It is sad that Gambas3 still doesn't have it's own webseite and can only be found in search engines as a Sourceforge subdomain.

I do a lot of SEO. In the case of Gambas I would create a small page at

https://gambas.sourceforge.net/

with the Gambas Logo and just one sentence and one Link:

"Gambas3 has moved to

https://gambas-basic.org/
"

https://gambas-basic.org/index.html should at first be an exact mirror of the original page at Sourceforge. With this approach you can get the search engines to index the new page.

Later you should get rid of this awful frame that incorporates stuff from gambaswiki.org. This is really bad anti-SEO.

I always wondered why it took such a long time until content of gambaswiki.org and lists.gambas-basic.org made it into the serps. I think the reason is the power of Sourceforge and the spaghettiesque linking.

Alles Gute
