301 Redirects for SEO
301 Redirects For SEO Purpose
301 redirects forwarding the http:// to the http://www is a good idea with any site, but they can be especially important with proxies. This will forward the non-www (http://proxyblog.org) version of your site to the www version (http://www.proxyblog.org).
Whether you are building your proxy with long-term goals or with the plan of selling in a few months, this redirection will help you do several things:
* Remove the issue of duplicate pages, as both pages will be exactly the same
* Spread the power of all that ‘link love’ to one place
* Pass PR more easily
So, how do you do it?
All you need to do is construct a simple .htaccess file with this code in your webhosting filemanager, or add this code to your existing .htaccess:
Options +FollowSymlinks
RewriteEngine on
rewritecond %{http_host} ^domain.com [nc]
rewriterule ^(.*)$ http://www.domain.com/$1 [r=301,nc]
Remember to change domain.com with your actual domain. Save the file as .htaccess and upload the file to your site’s root. That’s it, you’re done!
