      What is the difference between "document" and "object" moved redirect errors?

      I'm used to see "object moved" as a redirect chain issue that needs to be fixed, but this week my report contained a "document moved" redirect chain issue. And it's on our homepage. Looks like it might be a HTTP versus an HTTPS issue.

        Will URLS With Existing 301 Redirects Be as Powerful As New URLS In Serps?

        redirect chain 301 redirect

        Most products on our site have redirects to them from years of switching platform and merely trying to get a great and optimised URL for SEO purposes. My question is this: If a product URL has alot of redirects (301's), would it be more beneficial to me to create a duplicated version of the product and start fresh with a new URL? I am not on here trying to gain backlinks but my site is tn nursery dot net (proof:)
        I need some quality help figuring out what to do.

        Unsolved 301 Redirect chain http>https>https:/www

        301 redirects https www server level rule redirect chain

        Dear community, I have the same issue with redirecting chain from http - https and then to https:// www.____
        In one of the previous opened discussions the solution given was: you'd update the server level rule to point directly to the end URL form.
        Re: 301 Redirect chain Are there any tutorials or resources available to help me properly implement this solution and resolve this issue? Tags: 301 Redirects, HTTPS, WWW, Server Level Rule, Redirect Chain Any tutorials how to do it properly to resolve this issue ?

        Unsolved I have a "click rate juice" question would like to know.

        traffic canonical redirect

        Hello I have a "click rate juice" question would like to know. For example. I created a noindex site for a few days event purposes. Using a random domain like this: event.example.com. Expecting 5000+ clicks per day. Is it possible to gain some traffic juice from this event website domain "example.com" to my other main site "main.com" but without exposing its URL. Thought about using 301 redirecting "example.com" to "main.com". But it will reveal the example-b.com to the general public if someone visits the domain "example.com". Also thought about using a canonical URL, but it would not be working because the event site is noindex. or it would not matter at all 🤔 Wondering if there is a thing like this to gain some traffic juice for another domain? Thanks

        Slug redirect to existing subdomain?

        link building whitehat redirect content subdomain

        Hi everyone, I'm Levi, new here and new in the world of SEO so please don't judge if my question is silly. Back on the days when my website was built we tought of having subdomains to help with SEO. We have a couple subdomains set up https://stansted.tonorwich.uk, https://heathrow.tonorwich.uk, https://gatwick.tonorwich.uk, https://luton.tonorwich.uk etc .
        We do have some content on these, but from seo perspective creating a slug and redirecting it to the subdomains would be beneficial? Would it make any difference at all, good or bad? Ex. Creating
        https://tonorwich.uk/taxi-minibus-tofrom-stansted and redirecting it to https://stansted.tonorwich.uk
        Will this help or we better create different content on the slugs? Waiting for your opinions.
        Thanks in advance.

        Multilang site: Auto redirect 301 or 302?

        redirect 301 redirect 302 international seo

        We need to establish if 301 or 302 response code is to be used for our auto redirects based on Accept-Language header. https://domain.com
        30x > https://domain.com/en
        30x > https://domain.com/ru
        30x > https://domain.com/de The site architecture is set up with proper inline HREFLANG.
        We have read different opinions about this, Ahrefs says 302 is the correct one:
        https://ahrefs.com/blog/301-vs-302-redirects/
        302 redirect:
        "You want to redirect users to the right version of the site for them (based on location/language)." You could argue that the root redirect is never permanent as it varies based on user language settings (302)
        On the other hand, the lang specific redirects are permanent per language: IF Accept-Language header = en
        https://domain.com > 301 > https://domain.com/en
        IF Accept-Language header = ru
        https://domain.com > 301 > https://domain.com/ru So each of these is 'permanent'. So which is the correct?

        How To Stop Google's "Fetch & Render" From Showing Up In Google Analytics

        Hi all, Within Google's "Fetch & Render" (found in Google Search Console) is the ability to index certain pages from my website on-demand. Unfortunately, every time I ask Google to index a page, it registers as a bounce in Google Analytics. Also, if it means anything, my website (www.knowtro.com) is a single-page application, functioning similarly to Google. If you guys know of any solution to this problem, please help! I originally thought that Google would know to block its own Fetch & Render crawler from Google Analytics but that doesn't seem to be the case. Thanks, Austin

        Google Webmaster indicates robots.text access error

        Seems that Google has not been crawling due to an access issue with our robots.txt
        Late 2013 we migrated to a new host, WPEngine, so things might have changed, however this issue appears to be recent. A quick test shows I can access the file. This is the Google Webmaster Tool message: http://www.growth trac dot com/: Googlebot can't access your site January 17, 2014 Over the last 24 hours, Googlebot encountered 62 errors while attempting to access your robots.txt. To ensure that we didn't crawl any pages listed in that file, we postponed our crawl. Your site's overall robots.txt error rate is 8.8% Note the above message says 'over the last 24 hours', however the date is Jan-17 This is the response from our host:
        Thanks for contacting WP Engine support! I looked into the suggestions listed below and it doesn't appear that these scenarios are the cause of the errors. I looked into the server logs and I was only able to find 200 server responses on the /robots.txt. Secondly I made sure that the server wasn't over loaded. The last suggestion doesn't apply to your setup on WP Engine. We do not have any leads as to why the errors occurred. If you have any other questions or concerns, please feel free to reach out to us. Google is crawling the site-- should I be concerned? If so, is there a way to remedy this? By the way, our robots file is very lean, only a few lines, not a big deal. Thanks!
