How To Fix Http Error 301

4 replies
Hi Warriors,

I get the following message in my google webmaster tool.

"URLs not followed
When we tested a sample of URLs from your Sitemap, we found that some URLs redirect to other locations. We recommend that your Sitemap contain URLs that point to the final destination (the redirect target) instead of redirecting to another URL."

Basically its referring to mydomain/mypagetitletag

I thought this was how its done for seo,so why im getting this error message?

Thanks warriors

    Also log on to your hosting admin panel, see something about Redirects, you might find strange things there too

    WordPress by default makes no trouble with 301 redirects. If problem occurs, might be related with a buggy WP plugin; an incorrect permalinks settings; or f*ckedup .htaccess file (things happen, if you don't pay attention what's happening on your FTP server)
