URL rewrite question
-
I have adjusted a setting in my CMS and the URL's have changed from
http://www.ensorbuilding.com/section.php/43/1/firestone-epdm-rubbercover-flat-roofing
to
http://www.ensorbuilding.com/section/43/1/firestone-epdm-rubbercover-flat-roofing
This has changed all the URL's on the website not just this example.
As you can see , the .php extension has now been removed but people can still access the .php version of the page.
What I want is a site-wide 301 redirect but can not figure out how to implement it?
Any help is appreciated
Thanks

Glad to hear it helped. Sorry though, I am not sure how to fix that part. Hopefully Seth can help you out on that one.

What CMS are you using?

That has solved it thanks Jordan.
Is there anyway to completely remove the section/43/1/ ?
Each page on my website has a different number after section such as
http://www.ensorbuilding.com/section/52/1/chinese-roof-slates
http://www.ensorbuilding.com/section/76/1/granuflex-rubber-tiles
So anyway to change my URLs to http://www.ensorbuilding.com/chinese-roof-slates/ and http://www.ensorbuilding.com/granuflex-rubber-tiles ?

If your server supports .htacess files, this is what I use for redirecting one folder to another.
Redirect 301 /section.php/ http://www.ensorbuilding.com/section/

URL Question: Is there any value for ecomm sites in having a reverse "breadcrumb" in the URL?
Wondering if there is any value for e-comm sites to feature a reverse breadcrumb like structure in the URL? For example: Example: https://www.grainger.com/category/anchor-bolts/anchors/fasteners/ecatalog/N-8j5?ssf=3&ssf=3 where we have a reverse categorization happening? with /level2-sub-cat/level1-sub-cat/category in the reverse order as to the actual location on the site.

How can I see the SEO of a URL? I need to know the progress of a specific landing-page of my web. Not a keyword, an url please. Thanks.
I need to know the evolution on SEO of a specific landing-page (an URL) of my web. Not a keyword, a url. Thanks. (Necesito saber si es posible averiguar el progreso de una URL específica en el posicionamiento de Google. Es decir, lo que hace SEOmoz con las palabras clave pero al revés. Yo tengo una url concreta que quiero posicionar en las primeras posiciones de Google pero quiero ver cómo va progresando en función a los cambios que le voy aplicando. Muchas gracias)

Automatic redirect to external urls
Hi all, I'm developing a dynamic qr code service.. The service works in the following way: You create an account with an associated QR CODE pointing to a url like:
Technical SEO | | raulo79
- http://domain.me/username The user can change the target of this url.. he can:
- point to an external url ( his website for example)
- point to a vCard download page
- a mobile ready webpage ( no redirection in this case)... Visiting http://domain.me/username my company logo is displayed and we redirect the visitor with a: header("Refresh: 5;URL=http://userdomain.tld"); Google is indexing many user's URLs, this is good for those users pointing to the mobile ready webpage, in this case there is no redirection, but Google is indexing many urls that redirect to an external url and I don't know how to avoid this.. I can't do an header('Location: http://www.example.com/'); because I need to display our logo after redirection.. how can I do google friendly? Sorry for my english, I hope you can undestand the problem. Best regards.

Drupal URL Aliases vs 301 Redirects + Do URL Aliases create duplicates?
Hi all! I have just begun work on a Drupal site which heavily uses the URL Aliases feature. I fear that it is creating duplicate links. For example:: we have http://www.URL.com/index.php and http://www.URL.com/ In addition we are about to switch a lot of links and want to keep the search engine benefit. Am I right in thinking URL aliases change the URL, while leaving the old URL live and without creating search engine friendly redirects such as 301s? Thanks for any help! Christian

Slashes In Url's
If your cms has created two urls for the same piece of content that look like the following, www.domianname.com/stores and www.domianname.com/stores/, will this be seen as duplicate content by google? Your tools seem to pick it up as errors. Does one of the urls need 301 to the other to clear this up, or is it not a major problem? Thanks.
