Problem with re-direction
-
Please help me to solve a problem with redirection. I re-do the
site and move it to new domain page-by-page as recommended.I use WordPress Redirect plugin. I did everything as written 10
days ago but don't see redirection.For example, old page http://aurora17.com/?page_id=2485
New page http://njcruise.org/alaska-cruise-tour/
Where is a problem? How to solve it?

If you have trouble tomorrow, add me on Facebook or skype and I'll try and chat you through it.

Thank you!!! I will try tomorrow.

The entire documentation is here: http://urbangiraffe.com/plugins/redirection/
I haven't used this plugin - only Simple 301s - not Redirection. So I'm not entirely sure if they want the whole URL but it should be simple to test. I would think you would put in the http:// but try it without - maybe that's the issue?
-
Matt, please clarify format for request. It has to be the whole address as http://aurora17.com/?page_id=2485 or /aurora17.com/?page_id=2485
Thank you!
-
No worries! Let us know how it goes.
-
Thank you Matt!

Yes, don't use the plugin on NJCruise - just Aurora.
If they don't work, just deactivate (don't remove) the plugin and try the one I linked above (Simple 301s) It's a much easier plugin and it should work easily. If not, you can always delete Simple 301s and reactivate Redirection - so you'd still have all your work.
-
Right now I have on both! This is because I didn't know what to do! So, remove redirection from NJcruise? Thank you!
-
Hello Nadejda.
I see the plugin is installed on your aurora17 blog, but as you say, it isn't working.
Your old site has several problems, but it appears it does know how to redirect, but the plugin, not the apache server would be doing the redirecting if you set it up correctly.
Are you sure you set the redirects on Aurora and not on NJCruise?
-
You set up the plugin exactly as I said and it didn't work? That's odd. I think it's the way we're writing URLs then.
Deactivate the plugin.
http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/simple-301-redirects/
Install and try Simple 301s ... try that. If it doesn't work, we'll keep working on the URLs for the first plugin but this should make your life better in like 5 minutes.
-
Thank you Matt! I used redirection plugin on NJcruise.org but noticed that this doesn't work. I switched to aurora17.com - the same issue. I changed the plugin - no result. Your suggestion? Thank you!
-
The problem is on aurora17.com - your Wordpress Redirect plugin is not working for some reason.
You're using this: http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/redirection/ ?
Source URL: http://aurora17.com/?page_id=2485
Target URL: http://njcruise.org/alaska-cruise-tour/
Type: Simple redirection
Method: 301
Then you just push "Add redirection" - it should be ok? Is the plugin activated on Aurora or NJCruise? You want it on Aurora to "push" the URLs to the new site. More info if you can...

Identifying a 301-redirect problem?
I was looking at the Search Engine Optimization reports for one of my clients in Google Analytics, and I saw that their two biggest landing pages are www.website.com and http://website.com. Does this mean that Google is serving both the 'www' and 'non-www' versions of the website, and thus harming the website's overall ranking? Thanks for any input!

Walking into a site I didn't build, easy way to fix this # indexing problem?
I recently joined a team with a site without a) Great content b) Not much of any search traffic I looked and all their url's are built in this way: Normal looking link -> not actually a new page but # like: /#content-title And it has no h1 tag. Page doesn't refresh. My initial thought is to gut the site and build it in wordpress, but first have to ask, is there a way to make a site with /#/ content loading friendly to search engines?

Site Map Problems or Are They?
According to webmaster tools my Sitemap contains urls which are blocked by robots.txt Our site map is generically generated and encompasses all web pages, whether I have excluded them using the robots.txt file As far as I am aware this has never been an issue until recently. Is this hurting my rankings and how do I fix it? Secondly, webmaster tools says there is over 5,000 error/warnings on my site map. But site map is only 1,400 or so pages submitted. How do I see what is going on?

Code problem and the impact on links
We have a specific URL naming convention for 'city landing pages': .com/Burbank-CA .com/Boston-MA etc. We use this naming convention almost exclisively as the URLs for links. Our website had a code breakdown and all those URLs within that naming convention led to an error message on the website. Will this impact our links?

Re-write of url
Hi, I would like your input on the following dilemma I am wanting to target the keyword "download xml". at the moment Google indexes us on page 2 and indexes the page www.ourdomain.com/download.aspx I would like to rewrite the url to be /download-xml-editor.aspx The current page is a pr5 and is our most trafficked and externally inked to page. My thoughts are quite mixed on how to do this. approach 1: re-write url of "download.aspx" and setup permanent 301 redirect of download.aspx to download-xml-editor.aspx approach 2: create a new page called download-xml-editor and 301 redirect that to the current stronger page which is download.aspx approach 3: create new page called download-xml-editor with unique content and try and get that page to rank over time, allowing it to build up links and not compromise the current page, then later 301 redirect How would you deal with this and what are your recommendations
