@LouisPortier said in Redirection chain and Javascript Redirect:
Hi,
A redirection chain is usually defined as a page redirecting to another page which itself is another redirection.
URL1 ---(301/302)---> URL2 ---(301/302)---> URL3
But what about Javascript redirect? They seem to be a different beast:
URL1 ---(301/302)---> URL2 ---(200 then Javascript redirect)---> URL3
From what I know if the javascript redirect is instant Google counts it as a 301 permanent redirection, but I'm still not sure about if this counts as a redirection chain.
Most of the tools (such as moz) only see the first redirection.
So is that scenario a redirection chain or no?
A JavaScript redirect, on the other hand, is a redirect that occurs using JavaScript code embedded in a webpage. Instead of relying on server-side redirects, JavaScript redirects are triggered when the page loads or when certain conditions are met, and they instruct the browser to navigate to a different URL. They can be used for various purposes, such as redirecting users after a certain amount of time, after a form submission, or based on user interactions.
