    UmbracoRedirect v UmbracoInternalRedirectId

    Hi all, Im using umbraco redirect to create a navigation that has the same page under different dropdowns.

    Ive found somewhere that Umbraco Redirect is a 302 - temporary redirect.

    What is the difference between Umbraco Redirect and Umbraco Internal Redirect ID?

    Thanks

    Martin

    Hi Martin,

    Umbraco Redirect (alias: umbracoRedirect) - this allows you to redirect to another page in your site, which is effectively a 302 redirect.

    Umbraco Internal Redirect (alias: umbracoInternalRedirectId) - this will load a selected page on your site transparently without redirecting the URL.

    Use a content picker datatype on both of these properties to make it work.

    Hope that helps.

    /B.

    Thanks Bijesh. How does web crawlers see the page with the Umbraco Internal Redirect Id? Will it see it as a duplicate page?

    Thanks

    Hi Martin,

    I'm no SEO expert but I guess in theory it could see it as a duplicate page. You could use a canonical tag in the page to help with this. I found this Twitter convo that might help.

    Thanks Bijesh. That twitter feed is interesting. Do you know of any packages to implement a canonical link or best practices?

    Thanks

    The one I would recommend is SEO Checker . I haven't used it myself but i hear its a great product.

    You could also see what the project search throws up that might be relevant.
