When a domain redirect is in place the web browser will direct one domain name to another, and there are various ways to implement this, based on what the objective is for redirecting a domain.

A 301 redirect is used to change the course of all the traffic from one page to another basically it tells search engines like google that the URL Web address of a page has changed and lets them know what the new page is. This helps the new page to maintain the SEO power acquired by the previous page and is necessary to avoide content duplication issues which google really dislikes

What is redirect? and what it mean

Every page on the web has an address, a URL, which stands for ‘Uniform Resource Locator’. Sometimes, content moves from one URL to another URL. That’s when you need a redirect. A redirect automatically makes a browser go from one URL to another URL.

A redirect can point to any other URL: it doesn’t need to point to the same website. Redirects to another domain are sometimes referred to as cross-domain redirects.

A redirect is a way to send both users and search engines to a different URL from the one they originally requested.
Redirects are often used for a variety of reasons, such as:

• Changing the structure of a website
• Moving a website to a new domain
• Consolidating multiple pages into one
• Fixing broken links
• Redirecting traffic from an old website to a new website

A redirect occurs when someone requests a specific page but ends up on a different page. Most of the time, the site owner deletes the page and sets up a redirect so that visitors and search engines can find a relevant page instead.
