KaboutjieMember
Thanks Erik
I never created the original category, that was done by the company that did my website. Thanks for all your advice. I have spoken to our website developers and asked them to decide and make a plan because I am just confusing myself noe end!
KaboutjieMemberThanks Erik. I've found nothing is "simple" with websites lol. I thought it would be easy to set up and run an online baby store.... but not really. I have learnt loads but there is always so much I don't understand and need to learn.
On my retail website I had a category called "amber products" and I changed that category url. It was http://kaboutjie.com/product/amber-products/ and now it is http://kaboutjie.com/product/amber-teething-necklaces/
Then there are 6 products in that category... each called amber teething necklace and then the colour...
so for eg http://kaboutjie.com/product/amber-products/amber-teething-necklace-honey was changed to http://kaboutjie.com/product/amber-teething-necklaces/amber-teething-necklace-honeyDoes that make sense? Have a made a complete mess of this now?
I just wanted to get out amber products because it is not any old amber product it is amber teething necklaces. And I think it was confusing customers and making it harder for me to SEO those products? Or maybe it was all in my mind.
What do you advise I do?
KaboutjieMemberI made the category URL and the products in that category a new URL... not sure now what I am doing!
KaboutjieMemberThanks Erik! See I didn't even know the difference between a 301 and a 302 redirect. Thank you for making that clear for me. I will attempt that. What is the canonical URL?
I changed the URL so how would the old URL be there? Do I need to add a page again with the old URL and then put in the redirect?
Sorry for all the questions, I really am a beginner....
