Hello:
everyone
hanif
here
from
the
inbound
marketing
team
back
again
for
another
short
video
on
301
redirects
and
when
you
should
use
it
a
301
redirect
is
a
way
of
sending
users
and
search
engines
from
one
url
to
a
different
url
in
real
world
example.
It's
like
moving
to
a
new
house
and
getting
all
your
mails
forwarded
from
your
old
address
to
your
new
address.

So
when
a
user
requests
page
a
they're
automatically
redirected
to
page
b
when
a
search
engine
robot
like
big
g
request,
page
a
it'll
realize
that
it's
been
redirected
to
page
b,
not
only
that
search
engines
would
also
pass
on
any
seo.
Goodness
from
page
a
to
page
b,
such
as
links
also
page
b,
will
replace
page
a
in
the
search
index.
