Magento 301 Redirect old URLS not working
- SEO |
Hi,
I recently moved hosting company and created a list of 250+ urls that needed to be pointed to other areas of the new site.
The method was to write at the very top of .htaccess:
Redirect 301 /old_url_name_or_directory/ to new full path url.
Eg:
Redirect 301 /wireless_curing_light/ http://www.exampledomain.com/dental-...pro-cure-light
However now some work and some dont.
Infact very few do.
The ones which don't, either show me an error 404 page or more often than not, an error "This webpage has a redirect loop".
I'm not sure if its related to this, also in the htaccess file:
############################################
## enable rewrites
Options +FollowSymLinks
RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^www\.domainname\.com$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://www.domainname.com/$1 [R=301,L]
Any suggestions would be appreciated. I'm concerned about the effect this will have on google indexing.
Thanks
