Which Redirect Should You Use, and When?

Most SEO tools only let you create 301s. The truth is each status code does something different — using the wrong one costs rankings, link equity, or both. SEObolt supports the five you'll actually need, with help text on each so non-developers don't have to memorize HTTP semantics.

301

Permanent Redirect

Use when content has moved for good. Passes link equity to the new URL. The default for site migrations and slug changes.

302

Temporary Redirect

Use when the move is short-term (A/B test, seasonal page). Search engines keep the original URL indexed.

307

Temporary (Strict)

Like 302 but preserves the HTTP method (POST stays POST). Useful for API endpoints and form posts.

410

Gone

Use when content has been intentionally removed forever. Tells Google to drop the URL from the index faster than a soft 404.

451

Legal Removal

Specifically for content blocked due to legal request (GDPR, DMCA, regional restrictions). Required for compliance in some jurisdictions.

REGEX

Pattern Matching

Match by exact URL, "contains", "starts with", or full regex. Migrate entire URL structures with one rule instead of one redirect per page.

How Do You Migrate 1,000 URLs Without Losing Your Weekend?

Site migrations, replatforming, post-merger consolidation — situations where you have hundreds or thousands of redirects to create at once. SEObolt's CSV import takes a flat file with source, destination, type, and matching columns and creates them all in one round-trip. Export the full list anytime to back it up or share with a developer.

  • Import format: source, destination, type, matching, group, status
  • Bulk operations: activate, deactivate, or delete many redirects at once
  • Validation on import: bad URLs and invalid status codes are flagged before commit, not after
  • Round-trip safe: export, edit in Excel/Google Sheets, re-import
  • Groups: tag redirects by project (e.g. "2024-replatform", "blog-restructure") for organized filtering

Which Redirects Are Actually Doing Work?

Every redirect has a hit counter that updates each time it fires. After a few weeks, you can see which redirects are catching real traffic and which are dead. The dead ones are candidates to remove — redirect chains slow page loads and eat crawl budget. The live ones tell you which old URLs people are still trying to reach (often from old emails, social shares, or rotting backlinks).

  • Hit counter: real-time count of how many times each redirect has fired
  • Sort by traffic: see your highest-value redirects at the top
  • Cleanup signal: redirects with zero hits in 90 days are candidates to retire
  • Active/Inactive toggle: pause a redirect without deleting it, in case you need to bring it back

Skip .htaccess. Push Redirects Straight to WordPress.

Connect your WordPress sites through the SEObolt Pro plugin and create redirects in the SEObolt dashboard — they apply on the live site immediately, no FTP, no .htaccess editing, no plugin conflicts. If you already use a redirect plugin like Rank Math or Yoast SEO Premium, SEObolt doesn't fight them — it writes to its own table and either takes precedence or defers based on your configuration.

  • Live push: create here, applies there in seconds via the plugin's REST endpoint
  • No file edits: nothing touches .htaccess or nginx.conf
  • Plays nice with existing plugins: coexists with Rank Math / Yoast / Redirection plugins without conflict
  • Per-site scoping: each redirect is tied to a specific GSC property, so multi-site agencies don't accidentally cross streams

From a 404 Error to a Fix in Two Clicks

The 404 Monitor records every broken URL hit on your site, sorted by traffic. Click any row and create a 301 redirect inline — the source is pre-filled with the broken URL, you just enter the destination and save. Most missing-page bleed gets fixed in a session of cleanup, not a sprint.
