      #302HTTP #temporaryredirect
      Hi everyone,

      Recently I have faced a crawl issue with my media images on website. For example this page url https://intreface.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/12/Horion-screen-side-2.png has 302 HTTP Status and the recommendation is to change it 301. I have read the article on temporary redirections here:
      https://moz.com/learn/seo/redirection?_ga=2.45324708.1293586627.1702571936-916254120.1702571936
      but its not written here how to redirect in my HTML 1 image url not the landing page.
      Screenshot 2023-12-15 at 11.02.40.png
      I have messaged to MOZ Support but they recommended to go for the MOZ Community!
      Screenshot 2023-12-15 at 11.06.02.png

      Could you assist me wit this issue please? I can reach HTTML of the necessary page and change what I need for permanent redirection but firstly I need to understand how to do that correctly.

          I was facing the same issue on my WordPress Local Electric service based website. Then I used 301 Plugin. This is the best plugin. I installed it and simply redirected my old link to the new one and it automatically redirected it to 301 which google recommends.

            @umar431 could you explain a little more about how to check if Google see this URL as 302 or 301?

            @umar431 said in Temporary redirect from 302 to 301 for PNG File?:

            Only if Google thinks you used a 302 redirect by mistake for a permanent move does this not happen. In that case, it treats the redirect as a 301.

                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?

                302 redirects in Magento, trying to fix

                magento 302

                Hi all, I'm assigned a site in Magento. After the first craw, we found almost 15k 302 redirects. A sample URL ends with this /stores/store/switch/?SID=qdq9mf1u6afgodo1vtvk0ucdpb&___from_store=default&___store=german&uenc=aHR0cHM6Ly9qdWljeWZsdXRlcy5jb20vP19fX3N0b3JlPWdlcm1hbg%2C%2C And they are currently 302 redirecting to the homepage as well as other main pages and also product pages it seems. Some of these point to account pages where customers log in. Probably best for me to de-index those so no issues there. But I'm worried about the 302 redirects to public pages. The extension we have installed is SEO Suite Ultimate by MageWorx. Does anyone here have experience here specifically and how did you fix it? Thanks, JC

                Help Setting Up 301 Redirects from Coldfusion Site to Wordpress Site.

                I have created a new website and need to redirect all of the previous pages to the new one. The old website was built in coldfusion and the new site is built in wordpress. One of the pages I'm trying to redirect is www.norriseal.com/products.cfm to http://norrisealwellmark.com/products/. This is what I have in my .htaccess file <ifmodule mod_rewrite.c="">Options +FollowSymlinks
                RewriteEngine On
                RewriteBase /
                Redirect 301 /products.cfm http://norrisealwellmark.com/products/</ifmodule> The result of this redirect is http://norrisealwellmark.com/products.cfm How do I prevent the .cfm from appending to the destination URL?

                Robots txt. in page with 301 redirect

                We currently have a a series of help pages that we would like to disallow from our robots txt. The thing is that these help pages are located in our old website, which now has a 301 redirect to current site. Which is the proper way to go around? 1- Add the pages we want to disallow to the robots.txt of the new website? 2- Break the redirect momentarily and add the pages to the robots.txt of the old one? Thanks

                301 redirect from Blogger

                Hello, I have a client with a Wordpress network of blogs, each blog is owned by a different blogger. Many of them were migrated time ago from Blogger. I have seen that the way used to redirect them is a meta refresh, so no authority is being passed. I cannot find any reliable way of making a 301 from Blogger, There are some plugins, but I'm afraid of using them. Any of you have experience with this situation please? I have even thought about placing a global rel canonical before the meta refresh, but I think that here the problem is the meta refresh itself.... Thank you in advance

                Can I remove 301 redirects after some time?

                Hello, We have an very large number of 301 redirects on our site and would like to find a way to remove some of them. Is there a time frame after which Google does not need a 301 any more? For example if A is 301 redirected to B, does Google know after a while not to serve A any more, and replaces any requests for A with B? How about any links that go to A? Or: Is the only option to have all links that pointed to A point to B and then the 301 can be removed after some time? Thank you for you you help!

                Trailing Slashes In Url use Canonical Url or 301 Redirect?

                I was thinking of using 301 redirects for trailing slahes to no trailing slashes for my urls. EG: www.url.com/page1/ 301 redirect to www.url.com/page1 Already got a redirect for non-www to www already. Just wondering in my case would it be best to continue using htacces for the trailing slash redirect or just go with Canonical URLs?

                200 Redirects for SEO instead of 301

                We are working with a company on re-platforming our website.  On a call yesterday they outlined a strategy to use 200 redirects for our top keywords instead of 301s.  I am not familiar with this type of redirect and was wondering if anyone could provide some more insight.
