The following is from the WGAN Forum discussion:

✓ Is it possible to get Matterport to create a redirect?

The short of it: by using a 3rd party platform for delivering Matterport tours, you can make changes to your Matterport tours; reprocess them and still have the same URL (not the Matterport URL, but the 3rd party tool URL such as WP3D Models, MPEmbed or Show & Tour.

Besides, does a client want to wrestle with a long, obtuse MP URL, or would they prefer - Calabasas3D.com ?

I'm a big user of WP3D and 3DVista and the other benefit of doing this is that every project I deliver is linked to my own website, and that boosts SEO. I get calls regularly from people who find me on Google. Your SEO is so important.

Hey, I'm in Los Angeles, a city with about 12 million people with a lot of MP creators. Search "matterport los angeles" and I'm the top of page one - have been for three years (except for paid ads). This is due to SEO and, to be transparent, the skilled work of Glenn Tremain at Nail Soup Media, another WGAN member.

Do your work, make it fabulous, but don't deliver it without benefiting from the SEO you deserve. It's important. And if you do this using a "wrapper" like WP3D Models, you'll never have this issue again.

This can either be on a show.tours link or your own custom domain name that you add to the system. A few examples below!

Zillow virtual tour at https://show.tours/e/N733pWS

Matterport virtual tour at https://kc.tours/e/cQDMdQh

GoThru virtual tour at https://show.tours/e/BQgr5gk

	I have a question that I am sure I should know the answer for. A customer wants a capture doing prior to the project being finished to use as template to ensure the model loads correctly on their website. If I capture a partial model and upload and then go back 2 weeks later and add to the model will the iframe and link remain the same or will it change. Many thanks in advance for you help

	As long as you use the same Capture model updated and do not make a duplicate, it will keep the same code. Some web Content Management Systems work better with just the URL, others work better with the embed code. So I always supply both to the web designer.

	@ukvisualimmersion by my experience every time you upload the project even the same one just will little different at "cut window mirror" line the result matterport link will be different. There is no way to keep the same matterport showcase link when you add some captures 2 weeks later for sure.
