Proxy Stash

301 Redirects For SEO Purpose for Proxies

301 redirects forwarding the http:// to the http://www is a good idea with any site, but they can be especially important with proxies. This will forward the non-www (http://proxystash.org) version of your site to the www version (http://proxystash.org).

Whether you are building your proxy with long-term goals or with the plan of selling in a few months, this redirection will help you do several things:

* Remove the issue of duplicate pages, as both pages will be exactly the same
* Spread the power of all that ‘link love’ to one place
* Pass PR more easily

So, how do you do it?

All you need to do is construct a simple .htaccess file with this code in your webhosting filemanager, or add this code to your existing .htaccess:

Options +FollowSymlinks
RewriteEngine on
rewritecond %{http_host} ^domain.com [nc]
rewriterule ^(.*)$ http://www.domain.com/$1 [r=301,nc]

Remember to change domain.com with your actual domain like this

rewritecond %{http_host} ^proxystash.org [nc]
rewriterule ^(.*)$ http://proxystash.org/$1 [r=301,nc]

Save the file as .htaccess and upload the file to your site’s root. That’s it, you’re done!
