The PhotoBiz Website Builder allows you to easily create 301 redirects for pages in your website if the page has changed it's name or been removed from your website. A 301 is like a message from a website to your browser. It says, "Hey, we've moved this webpage somewhere else, and we're not coming back." So, whenever anyone tries to visit the old webpage address, they'll be sent straight to the new one.
Also, all the importance that the old webpage had in search engines gets passed over to the new one. This trick is commonly used when a webpage is moved or taken off a website for good.
This guide will walk you through how to set up a 301 redirect for a page on your PhotoBiz website.
STEP ONE
Log into your PhotoBiz account and click on WEBSITE in the left side menu.
STEP TWO
Click on the SETTINGS option at the top center of your Website control panel.
STEP THREE
Click on the redirects button in the list of settings for your website builder.
STEP FOUR
The right-side menu will open and you'll see the following options:
- ORIGINAL URL: this section will contain the original URL that you're creating a 301 redirect for.
- REDIRECT TO: Drop down menu contains the options for where visitors who enter the Original URL are redirected to. The following options are available:
NONE - No redirect
EXTERNAL LINK - redirects to a link outside of your main website.
PAGE - choose from a list of the existing pages on your PhotoBiz website.
Important Note: If you're creating a 301 redirect for a new page to redirect from an old URL, be sure to either delete or set the old page to disabled for the 301 redirect to function properly.
FORM - choose from a list of PhotoBiz forms you've created in your PhotoBiz account.
EMAIL MARKETING - choose from a list of email marketing campaigns you've create in your PhotoBiz account.
