What is redirection, when redirection required?

URL redirection (or URL forwarding) is a World Wide Web technique for making a web page available under more than one URL address. It's required when you attempt to open a page with a different URL.
 
What is Redirection?

Redirection is the procedure of forwarding one URL to another URL. There are three main kinds of redirection.

How many types of Redirection:

Types of Redirects:

1. 301, "Moved Permanently"—recommended for SEO
2. 302, "Found" or "Moved Temporarily"
3. Meta Refresh


301 Moved Permanently:

A 301 redirect is a permanent redirect which passes between 90-99% of link juice (ranking power) to the redirected page. It refers to the HTTP status code for this type of redirect.

302 Found (HTTP 1.1) / Moved Temporarily (HTTP 1.0):

302 referred to the status code "Moved Temporarily. In this method your one URL redirects your website to another but for limited time while in 301 it redirects permanently.

Meta Refresh:

Meta refreshes are a type of redirect executed on the page level rather than the server level. They are usually slower, and not a recommended SEO technique. [/B]
