301 redirect is use when you want to redirect the user from the old page to the new page, this redirect is search engine friendly way to divert a user. If your server is unix server you can use .htaccess file to do 301 redirect, if you don’t have it just create the text file and rename it into .htaccess
In .htaccess file put the following line code;
redirect 301 <old adress> http://www.yourdomain.com/<new address>
for example:
redirect 301 /folder/oldfile.htm http://www.yourdomain.com/folder/newfile.htm
Notice that http:// is not use when describing the old page, If you have more than 1 page the create seperate line for each of the page. When you’re done, save the file back to your server.
