Default Re: Google Penalty?

your coding isnt correct.

you dont include the http:// on the first part of the redirect, just the path from the root, ie

Code:
Redirect 301 /resins.php http://www.justetchinit.com/shop/index.php?act=viewCat&catId=4

One thing I realized is that the old site was being referred to without the www in front of it, and I see that this can be a problem in making the search engines think there are duplicate pages. Plus, some of the old pages need to point to the new locations. I tried to do a redirect in my .htaccess file (I am hosted on Apache) by adding the following codes:

Code:
redirect 301 http://justetchinit.com http://www.justetchinit.com/index.html

redirect 301 http://justetchinit.com/resins.php http://www.justetchinit.com/shop/index.php?act=viewCat&catId=4
It did not work apparently. Can someone help me with what exactly the code should say?

Thanks so much! Hugs and kisses!
