New York Times Buries International Herald Tribune Website

May

2009

Thomas Crampton of International Herald Tribune is unhappy that The New York Times deleted the entire iht.com website making all the backlinks / Google Juice useless.

Every one of the links ever made to IHT stories now points back to the generic NY Times global front page. Even when I go to the NY Times global page, I cannot find my articles. In other words, my entire journalistic career at the IHT – from war zones to SARS wards – has been erased.

The IHT logo on this blog used to link to a search of the IHT website for my articles. On a professional level, I am appaled that the NY Times would kill all the links back to the IHT website. Imagine the power of combining two sites with a Google rank of 9 instead of killing one.

You Erased My Career
