Hello,
I have a .htaccess file and this is the code:
-----------------------
RewriteEngine on
RewriteRule ^site/(.*)$ site.php?id=$1
RewriteRule ^downloads/(.*)$ search.php?keywords=$1
RewriteRule ^downloads/(.*)/(.*)$ search.php?keywords=$1_$2
RewriteRule ^download/(.*)/(.*)$ search.php?keywords=$1&page=$2
RewriteRule ^review/(.*)$ review.php?d=$1
RewriteRule ^edit/(.*)$ edit.php?d=$1
RewriteRule ^refer/(.*)$ refer.php?d=$1

IndexIgnore *

Redirect http://mysite.com/s/ http://mysite.com/s/create.php

RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^www\.mysite\.com$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://mysite.com/$1 [R=301,L]
-----------------------------

( mysite.com is not my site. )

I have checked the links in a popular "search engine friendly redirect check
tool" and it shows that my links are 302 and are not SE friendly.

I wish to make all these redirections 301.
I have placed [R=301] at the end of all the lines above, but it didn't
worked.

Please tell me how to make all the links as 301 and search engine friendly.

Thanks a lot.

What links aren't search engine friendly, and who told you that?

If you go changing all your URLs, that's search engine unfriendly. They'll eventually sort it out and carry your links over, but it will take a while, and you'll loose any ranking you've built up in the meantime.

Hello Learning Newbie,
let me explain clearly:

I am trying to remove ? and & symbols etc from the links of my pages so that I can covert dynamic links into static links.

Now my links are not SE frienly because they are 302 Temporary Redicts rather than 301 Permanent Redirects.

I Wish to make all my redirected links as 301 permanent links rather than 302.

This process is not at all against SE guidelines.
There is no danger of losing any ranking because of changing links from 302 to 301.

Thanks for your reply.

Looking forward to more replies...
