📚 Redirect Complete Guide
🔹 Redirect Status Codes
301 Moved Permanently — Best for SEO. Passes full link equity. Use when page has permanently moved.
302 Found (Temporary) — Passes minimal link equity. Use for A/B tests or temporary maintenance.
307 Temporary Redirect — Like 302 but preserves HTTP method (GET stays GET, POST stays POST).
308 Permanent Redirect — Like 301 but preserves HTTP method. Useful for API redirects.
🔹 SEO Impact of Redirects
- 301 passes ~99% of link equity to new URL
- Each redirect hop adds ~10-15ms latency
- Redirect chains (3+ hops) can reduce crawl efficiency
- Redirect loops cause Googlebot to stop crawling that URL
- Always prefer direct 301 over chains
🔹 Common Issues & Fixes
Redirect Chain — A→B→C instead of A→C. Fix: Update A to point directly to C.
Redirect Loop — A→B→A. Fix: Check both server config and CMS settings.
302 instead of 301 — Temporary when it should be permanent. Fix: Change to 301.
HTTP to HTTPS redirect missing — Fix: Add RewriteRule to force HTTPS.
