    I use Internet Officer tool to see the 302 redirect but I check the redirects in the CPanel and there are none. In the .htaccess there are none either. I don't know where else to look 😞

    The url is http://servicioshosting.com

    Can you guys help me? I can't set up a campaign because Google can't crawl the website. I can't setup the Facebook OpenGraph because of the redirect.

      I had this problem exactly and it turns out it was an index file on the server for the old page.

      It was the only temporary redirect on the site so it was driving me mad and I wanted rid of it! FTP onto the server and check the folder for the old page which will likely contain an index file. the 302 was in there for us.

      This is an old question but posting this for people in future.

        If you're sure that the files on mamp and what's on the server are the same, then perhaps your hosting company is doing something or there's something in the config of the web server.

        Sorry Vanessa, that's as much as I can help with - guess you need to find someone who knows whmcs 😞

        Good luck, would be good to know how it works out and what the solution is.

          It didn't work 😞
          Something strange: I have the site running locally in my computer with MAMP. When I check the HTTP response in my local website it doesn't have the redirect, it has an OK 200 code.

          Could this mean it's a server issue? And if so, where do I check?

            Sorry, on the edge of my knowledge, perhaps try removing those lines and seeing the effect? (I'd try removing them one at a time starting with the second one).

              Yes, I checked and whenever there is a cookie set the 302 redirect disappears. If I delete the cookies it comes back. The system I use for the website template is the WHMCS, there is a file for setting the cookie for affiliates links (aff.php), and at the end there is this:

              header("HTTP/1.1 301 Moved Permanently");

              header("Location: ".$CONFIG["Domain"]);

                I don't think that's it - that's a 301 redirect and the issue you reported is a 302.

                If you see the same issue I do with cookies affecting the result, then I'd suggest that is a clue - as far as I know htaccess redirects don't make use of cookies.

                  Ok, I'm looking. I also check the .htaccess again. Could this be the redirect:

                  RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^servicioshosting.com$ [OR]

                  RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^www.servicioshosting.com$

                  RewriteRule ^whmcs/?$ "http://www.servicioshosting.com/clientarea.php" [R=301,L]

                  I keep erasing the first two lines and they keep coming back when I check back the .htaccess,

                    IT could be an on-page redirect . Open up your index file equivalent and look for something like

                    Header( "Location: http://servicioshosting.com/" );

                      I get this using httpfox.

                      302 Redirect to: / http://servicioshosting.com/

                      I also see the redirect on https://www.servicioshosting.com/index.php when I first switched to English language from the home page. Then when reloading https://www.servicioshosting.com/index.php there was no 302.

                      I also noticed that when I deleted servicioshosting.com cookies and reloaded https://www.servicioshosting.com/index.php the 302 was back.

                      So I suspect it is something to do with the way the CMS is using cookies, since crawlers don't set cookies they get the 302.

                      I guess you'll need to dig into the CMS/talk to a developer. Good luck!

                        Source page showsI have 2 h1 tags on my page. I can only find one.

                        When I grade my page it says I have more than one h1 tag. I view the source page and it shows there are two h1 headings with the same wording. If I delete the one h1 heading I can find, the page source shows I have deleted both of them. I don't know how to get to the other heading to delete it. And I'm off page one of google!

                        Is one page with long content better than multiple pages with shorter content?

                        (Note, the site links are from a sandbox site and has very low DA or PA) If you look at this page, you will see at the bottom a lengthy article detailing all of the properties of the product categories in the links above. http://www.aspensecurityfasteners.com/Screws-s/432.htm My question is, is there more SEO value in having the one long article in the general product category page, or in breaking up the content and moving the sub-topics as content to the more specific sub-category pages? e.g. http://www.aspensecurityfasteners.com/Screws-Button-Head-Socket-s/1579.htm

                        I'd like to crawl our ecommerce site to see how deep (clicks from home page) pages are. I want to verify that every category, sub-category, and product detail page is within three clicks of the home page for googlebot. Suggestions? Thanks!

                        I keep getting Authentication Failed on the API

                        I have the credentials in the URL correctly but it will continue to fail authentication. I will not post them obviously but is there a problem with the API currently? I tried creating new credentials  Also I have used this before so I am sure it is not a problem with the credentials. I somehow managed to get Chrome to show the data. Firefox will not and the code i have written also return authentication failed. This is a bug on your end. Please fix it ASAP.

                        I'm analyzing a site and the page authority is the exact same for every page in the site. How can this be since the page authority is supposed to be unique to each page?

                        Fetch googlebot for sites you don't own?

                        I've used the "fetch as googlebot" tool in Google webmaster tools to submit links from my site, but I was wondering if there was any type of tool or submission process like this for submitting links from other sites that you do not own? The reason I ask is, I worked for several months to get a website to accept my link as part of their dealer locator tool. The link to my site was published a few months ago, however I don't think google has found it and the reason could be because you have to type in your zip code to get the link to appear. This is the website that I am referencing: http://www.ranchhand.com/dealers.php?zip=78070&radius=20 (my website is www.rangeroffroad.com) Is there any way for Google to index the link? Any ideas?

                        How to check Page Authority in bulk?

                        Hey guys, I'm on the free trial for SEOmoz PRO and I'm in love. One question, though. I've been looking all over the internet for a way to check Page Authority in bulk. Is there a way to do this? Would I need the SEOmoz API? And what is the charge? All I really need is a way to check Page Authority in bulk--no extra bells and whistles. Thanks, Brandon

                        I've just had a look at the crawl diagnostics and my site comes up with duplicate page content and duplicate titles. I noticed that the url all has %5C at the end which I've never seen before. Does anybody know what that means?
