301/302 header
-
Hi,
I changed from http to https with SSL certificate and have added the following code in my htaccess:RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{HTTPS} !^on$
RewriteRule (.*) https://www.mysitesurl.com/$1 [R,L]RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^www.
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://www.%{HTTP_HOST}/$1 [R=301,L]But Moz returns a:
Temporary Redirect
Using HTTP header refreshes, 302, 303, or 307 redirects will cause search engine crawlers to treat the redirect as temporary and not pass any link equity to other pages. We highly recommend that you replace temporary redirects with 301 redirectAnd additional header checkers return a 302 also when I check http://www.mysitesurl.com/:
HTTP/1.1 302 Found =>
Date => Tue, 05 May 2015 09:31:18 GMT
Server => Apache/2
Location => https://www.mysitesurl.com/
Content-Length => 214
Connection => close
Content-Type => text/html; charset=iso-8859-1Anybody an idea why there is no 301 result?
Thanks

Hi Matt,
Thanks for that, have changed the code as you advised to:
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{HTTPS} !^on$
RewriteRule (.*) https://www.mysitesurl.com/$1 [R**=301**,L]RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^www.
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://www.%{HTTP_HOST}/$1 [R=301,L]and it seems to work!
HTTP/1.1 301 Moved Permanently =>
Date => Tue, 05 May 2015 12:07:49 GMT
Server => Apache/2
Location => https://www.mysitesurl.com/
Content-Length => 238
Connection => close
Content-Type => text/html; charset=iso-8859-1Thanks a bunch!!!

Ok thanks for the PM. I see the issue now - didn't need the URL after all, just a few more minutes to process.
The redirect is matching the first rule. You only have R,L so R by itself defaults to 302. It's picking up that before the other rule so it stops processing.
Set the top rule to R=301 and make sure you see a true 301 after that. If not, I'm wrong. haha But I think that's it.

Going to need the actual URL I think. If you can't post here, PM it - but I don't see the issue.

We Launched a new site and Rogerbot is still reporting on links/errors from the old site, is there a way to clear those out?
We are mostly a Branding agency, and have not put a lot of effort into SEO for ourselves... SEO tends to take a backseat to design most of the time, making it a little difficult for me at times when it comes to SEO. We recently launched a new site, http://Roninadv.com/ and the developer and I have done quite a bit of work to make it work well for Google. I was really looking forward to a new crawl report from Roger, but alas, It's like Roger crawled the old site? The new site has been up since last Monday. Is there a way to clear out the old errors? Do I just need to give roger more time?

How to find all 301 redirect for URL xyz.com/products (internal and external)?
This is what we are thinking: Get all URL of the xyz.com/products using XENU software. Search those URL on google (site;xyz.com url ) to find out if they are crawled by google, do the same on bing (as currently google shows 4k URL and bing 11k ) Use opensiteexplorer (301 redirect ) and using (internal external) to get the desired result. Is this the right approach? If not, what is the best way to find the correct result? All suggestions are welcome.

Does Moz Pro generate similar keyword phrases in a list (preferably showing their difficulty %) or is it only one phrase at a time with no similar words/phrases suggested?
I just signed up for Moz Pro but the keyword research seems to only let you try one keyword phrase at a time. Is there a way for it to give related keywords along with their difficulty % info, etc. It is far too slow and inconvenient doing one at a time.
