A 301 Redirect is the most efficient and Search Engine Friendly method for webpage redirection. It\u2019s not that hard to implement and it should preserve your search engine rankings for that particular page. If you have to change file names or move pages around, it\u2019s the safest option. The code \u201c301\u201d is interpreted as \u201cmoved permanently\u201d.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

You can Test your redirection with Search Engine Friendly Redirect Checker<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n

    ColdFusion Redirect<\/strong><\/h3>\n
    <.cfheader statuscode=\u201d301\u2033 statustext=\u201dMoved permanently\u201d>\r\n<.cfheader name=\u201dLocation\u201d value=\u201dhttp:\/\/www.new-url.com\u201d><\/pre>\n
    PHP Redirect<\/h3>\n
    <?\r\nHeader( \u201cHTTP\/1.1 301 Moved Permanently\u201d );\r\nHeader( \u201cLocation: http:\/\/www.new-url.com\u201d );\r\n?><\/pre>\n
    ASP Redirect<\/h3>\n
    <%@ Language=VBScript %>\r\n<%\r\nResponse.Status=\u201d301 Moved Permanently\u201d\r\nResponse.AddHeader \u201cLocation\u201d,\u201dhttp:\/\/www.new-url.com\/\u201d\r\n%><\/pre>\n
    ASP .NET Redirect<\/h3>\n
    <script runat=\u201dserver\u201d>\r\nprivate void Page_Load(object sender, System.EventArgs e)\r\n{\r\nResponse.Status = \u201c301 Moved Permanently\u201d;\r\nResponse.AddHeader(\u201cLocation\u201d,\u201dhttp:\/\/www.new-url.com\u201d);\r\n}\r\n<\/script><\/pre>\n
    JSP (Java) Redirect<\/strong><\/h3>\n
    <%\r\nresponse.setStatus(301);\r\nresponse.setHeader( \u201cLocation\u201d, \u201chttp:\/\/www.new-url.com\/\u201d );\r\nresponse.setHeader( \u201cConnection\u201d, \u201cclose\u201d );\r\n%><\/pre>\n
    CGI PERL Redirect<\/strong><\/h3>\n
    $q = new CGI;\r\nprint $q->redirect(\u201chttp:\/\/www.new-url.com\/\u201d);<\/pre>\n
    Ruby on Rails Redirect<\/strong><\/h3>\n
    def old_action\r\nheaders[\u201cStatus\u201d] = \u201c301 Moved Permanently\u201d\r\nredirect_to \u201chttp:\/\/www.new-url.com\/\u201d\r\nend<\/pre>\n
    Redirect Old domain to New domain using htaccess redirect<\/strong><\/h3>\n
    Create a .htaccess file with the below code, it will ensure that all your directories and pages of your old domain will get correctly redirected to your new domain.
    \nThe .htaccess file needs to be placed in the root directory of your old website (i.e the same directory where your index file is placed)<\/p>\n
    Options +FollowSymLinks\r\nRewriteEngine on\r\nRewriteRule (.*) http:\/\/www.newdomain.com\/$1 [R=301,L]<\/pre>\n
    Please REPLACE www.newdomain.com in the above code with your actual domain name.<\/p>\n
    In addition to the redirect I would suggest that you contact every backlinking site to modify their backlink to point to your new website.<\/p>\n
    Note*<\/strong> This .htaccess method of redirection works ONLY on Linux servers having the Apache Mod-Rewrite moduled enabled.<\/p>\n
    Redirect to www using <\/strong>htaccess redirect<\/h3>\n
    Create a .htaccess file with the below code, it will ensure that all requests coming in to domain.com will get redirected to www.domain.com
    \nThe .htaccess file needs to be placed in the root directory of your old website (i.e the same directory where your index file is placed)<\/p>\n
    Options +FollowSymlinks\r\nRewriteEngine on\r\nrewritecond %{http_host} ^domain.com [nc]\r\nrewriterule ^(.*)$ http:\/\/www.domain.com\/$1 [r=301,nc]<\/pre>\n
    Please REPLACE domain.com and www.newdomain.com with your actual domain name.<\/p>\n
    Note*<\/strong> This .htaccess method of redirection works ONLY on Linux servers having the Apache Mod-Rewrite moduled enabled.<\/p>\n
    How to Redirect HTML<\/strong><\/h3>\n
    Please refer to section titled \u2018How to Redirect with htaccess\u2019, if your site is hosted on a Linux Server and \u2018IIS Redirect\u2019, if your site is hosted on a Windows Server.<\/p>\n
