302 nightmare of google

 

Lost google traffic?

do an inurl:yourdomain.com and see how many sites do funny links to you.

Check the full url of sites linking to you with this 302 header check - get a 302?

 

Then read these scary threads. This problem needs google to do something. Manually trying to remove the sites is too enormous a problem.

Google will become worthless unless something is done about this.

Some threads and articles about it

Stop Redirects from Hijacking Web Page PR offers tips on the steps to correct this problem.

Page Hijack: The 302 Exploit, Redirects and Google - this is a very good summary about the problem.

Slashdot news article about it.

w3c about 302

Many of these need you to be logged in :(

try the main page and browse. You won't be long before you find some threads about it

More about the 302 - this time Sparkle the cat suffers. A good explanation:
They have a "302-doctor" - info about it and then some proofs and demonstrations about a site which has been 302'd
So yet again people are still suffering at the hand of google.

It was interesting to note that google apparently was 302'd recently on an adwords page - and then quickly rectified this. Interesting how they can sort it out for themselves.

The cynical webmaster might conclude that less traffic in google means we'll pay for more ads on it, but we're just encouraging use of other search engines.
