301 redirect is the most efficient and Search Engine Friendly method for webpage redirection. It's not that hard to implement and it should preserve your search engine rankings for that particular page. If you have to change file names or move pages around, it's the safest option. The code "301" is interpreted as "moved permanently". It is an interesting subject, perhaps you should develop.

How many 301 can you make on your site?

How long can you keep a 301 before to remove older link? How to do it? Quote: Originally Posted by Webcont247365 How to do it? If you want to redirect any page then insert one line code in http_access file in the web folder of your website.

The syntax is here :

redirect 301 /yourdomainfolder/abc.htm http://www.yourdomainname.com/new_abc.htm

Here we are redirecting just one file to new_abc.html.

If you want to redirect 4 files then insert the same code 4 times and replace the file with new name mentioned above Quote: Originally Posted by Natural Elements How many 301 can you make on your site? Unlimited

I closed some site and redirected them to my new site and now Google doesn't even recognize the old names. this redirect is such a tricky method and if you dont use it wisely you might get penalize or ban in a search engine.

So I think the max you can have on your site is 20-25 redirect 301, now for redirect 301 from your domain to others I don't know. Its a great tool to consolidate your rankings for your URL.

Code: Example: http://yourdomain.com should point to http://www.yourdomain.comso that you don't split your inbound links.

When I asked my server provider how many I can redirect, he told me "unlimited" Sure Corneo, there are many ways to do redirect 301:

- On the page itself
- On htacces
- On control panel
- On server

So it really depends which one you want to use. thanks for explaining it, but it is a lengthy process, is there any easy/readymade process of 301 redirection I like to share two thing about #301 redirection
# Google won't pass the link-juice of the site if you choose #302 redirection. So always prefer to do #302 redirection which can be called as 'search-engine friendly' and 'SEO friendly'
# If u do chain of #301 redirection in single direction like A-B and B-C and C-D; that will definitely make problems to your site.. 302 for affiliates links always. Quote: Originally Posted by webhostingchoice 302 for affiliates links always. No I don't think so
