301: Dynamic URL to Static Page
-
I've been going around trying to get this dynamic url to redirect in the .htaccess file. I know I'm missing something but can't figure it out.
Code:
RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} ^/dynamic-url.php?id=43$
RewriteRule ^$ http://static/page/url/inserted/here? [R=301,L]Suggestions?

Hi there,
If it's only that URL (not a group of URLs with a pattern to follow) that you need to 301-redirect then you can directly use:
RedirectMatch 301 /dynamic-url.php?id=43 http://www.yourdomain.com/static/page/url/inserted/here
If this is not the situation please let me know!
Thanks,
Aleyda

In that case try my rewrite, like this and escape your metacharacters like . / - etc..
RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^domain.com$ [OR]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^www.domain.com$
RewriteRule ^dynamic-url.php?id=43$ "http://static/page/url/inserted/here" [R=301,L]edited that I forgot to escape the - and . in dynamic-url.php

It is the first one unfortunately it doesn't seem to be working for me.

Ahh yes I know what you mean that way. I meant programatically. Are you going to go through all the urls and manually assign them a redirect or are you trying to do one rewrite for multiple urls?
If the first one you could just use the example I gave you and modify it.
Also only just noticed I see you haven't escaped your metacharacters. This an example from mine (not using dynamic urls):
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^domain.com$ [OR]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^www.domain.com$
RewriteRule ^Old-Page.html$ "http://www.domain.com/New-Page.html" [R=301,L] -
I'm trying to take a dynamic url and redirect (301) it to a static url
dynamic: /dynamic-url.php?id=43

No sure exactly what you are trying to do...
this is something similar does it help? (from Stack Overflow)
RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} ^route=product/category&path=35&page=([0-9]+)$
RewriteRule ^index.php$ /product/category/35/page_%1? [R=301,L]Adam

URL Structure
I'm going through the process of redesigning our website, and the URL structure was brought up. We currently have our URLs structured as domain.com/keyword. It seems that some people think setting your URLs up to look like: domain.com/directory/keyword makes more sense from a user's perspective, and from a search engine's perspective. With our directories labeled as services, solutions, clients - I see no value in adding directories as it dilutes the keyword and brings the keyword further away from the domain. Are there situations where adding a directory before the page in the URL makes sense? If anyone has data showing the difference between the two that'd be great! Thanks, Brian

How do I fix issue regarding near duplicate pages on website associated to city OR local pages?
I am working on one e-commerce website where we have added 300+ pages to target different local cities in USA. We have added quite different paragraphs on 100+ pages to remove internal duplicate issue and save our website from Panda penalty. You can visit following page to know more about it. And, We have added unique paragraphs on few pages. But, I have big concerns with other elements which are available on page like Banner Gallery, Front Banner, Tool and few other attributes which are commonly available on each pages exclude 4 to 5 sentence paragraph. I have compiled one XML sitemap with all local pages and submitted to Google webmaster tools since 1st June 2013. But, I can see only 1 indexed page by Google on Google webmaster tools. http://www.bannerbuzz.com/local http://www.bannerbuzz.com/local/US/Alabama/Vinyl-Banners http://www.bannerbuzz.com/local/MO/Kansas-City/Vinyl-Banners and so on... Can anyone suggest me best solution for it?

Determining When to Break a Page Into Multiple Pages?
Suppose you have a page on your site that is a couple thousand words long. How would you determine when to split the page into two and are there any SEO advantages to doing this like being more focused on a specific topic. I noticed the Beginner's Guide to SEO is split into several pages, although it would concentrate the link juice if it was all on one page. Suppose you have a lot of comments. Is it better to move comments to a second page at a certain point? Sometimes the comments are not super focused on the topic of the page compared to the main text.

Have a client that migrated their site; went live with noindex/nofollow and for last two SEOMoz crawls only getting one page crawled. In contrast, G.A. is crawling all pages. Just wait?
Client site is 15 + pages. New site had noindex/nofollow removed prior to last two crawls.
