I'm planning to redirect the following pages to one new URL/landing page:

Old URLs:

http://www.olddomain.com/folder/page/1

http://www.olddomain.com/folder/page/2

http://www.olddomain.com/folder/page/3

http://www.olddomain.com/folder/page/4

http://www.olddomain.com/folder/page/5

http://www.olddomain.com/folder/page/6

New URL:

http://www.newdomain.com/new-folder/new-page

Code in .htaccess that I will be using:

RedirectMatch 301 /folder/page/(.*) http://www.newdomain.com/new-folder/new-page

Let me know if this is correct.

Thanks!

Hi guys,

The redirection rules are working well but the landing pages are showing special parameters like the following:

http://www.olddomain.com/folder/page/1 TO http://www.newdomain/new-folder/new-page?cmd=divisionsMain&group=2&country=1&category=1&page=1

http://www.olddomain.com/folder/page/2 TO http://www.newdomain/new-folder/new-page?cmd=divisionsMain&group=2&country=1&category=1&page=2

http://www.olddomain.com/folder/page/3 TO http://www.newdomain/new-folder/new-page?cmd=divisionsMain&group=2&country=1&category=1&page=3

http://www.olddomain.com/folder/page/4 TO http://www.newdomain/new-folder/new-page?cmd=divisionsMain&group=2&country=1&category=1&page=4

http://www.olddomain.com/folder/page/5 TO http://www.newdomain/new-folder/new-page?cmd=divisionsMain&group=2&country=1&category=1&page=5

http://www.olddomain.com/folder/page/6 TO http://www.newdomain/new-folder/new-page?cmd=divisionsMain&group=2&country=1&category=1&page=6

http://www.olddomain.com/folder TO http://www.newdomain/new-folder?cmd=divisionsMain&group=2&country=1&category=1

Thanks in advance!

I responded to one of his recent queries and then he pointed me to this question that he posted long time back that has been lying without being answered.

As long as you make sure this is placed in the correct tags, it should work fine.

This question was asked nearly a month ago - how did it turn out?

Google says Geolocation Redirects Are Okay - is this really ok ?

Traffic exchange referral URL's

We have a client who once per month is being hit by easyihts4u.com and it is creating huge increases in their referrals. All the hits go to one page specifically. From the research we have done, this site and others like it, are not spam bots. We cannot understand how they choose sites to target and what good it does for them, or our client to have hits all on one days to one page? We created a filter in analytics to create what we think is a more accurate reflection of traffic. Should be block them at the server level as well?

URL Shortners Question

Does anyone know if there are any URL shortners that track when googlebot visits them? I want to know when googlebot visits a shortened link that does NOT got to a URL I control. Any ideas would be much appreciated.

LOCAL SEO / Ranking for the difficult 'service areas' outside of the primary location?

It's generally not too hard to rank in Google Places and organically for your primary location. However if you are a service area business looking to rank for neighboring cities or service areas, Google makes this much tougher. Andrew Shotland mentions the obvious and not so obvious options: Service Area pages ranking organically, getting a real/virtual address, boost geo signals, and using zip codes instead of service area circle. But I am wondering if anyone had success with other methods? Maybe you have used geo-tagging in a creative way? This is a hurdle that many local business are struggling with and any experience or thoughts will be much appreciated

Article Re-posting / Duplication

Hi Mozzers! Quick question for you all. This is something I've been unsure of for a while. But when a guest post you've written goes live on someone's blog. Is it then okay it post the same article to your own blog as well as Squidoo for example? Would the search engines still see it as duplication if I have a link back to the original?

Influence of users' comments on a page (on-page SEO)

Do you think when Google crawls your page, it "monitors" comments updates to use this as a ranking factor? If Google is looking for social signs, looking for comments updates might be a social sign as well (ok a lot easier to manipulate, but still social). thx
