      Just trying to understand if this is bad or not.

      The crawl report has picked up that my website is redirecting (301) from http://mysite.com to http://www.mysite.com - under Crawl Notices (blue section). Is this the wrong way to do it as we wanted the www domain version? Is that why SEOMoz has flagged it ?

        Crawl Notices are merely a "heads-up" notice. You having a 301 redirect from http://mysite.com to http://www.mysite.com is perfectly normal and correct if that is the very you want displayed to users.

        One thing to note, you may be getting this message if:

        • You have a link in your website that points to the non-www version of your homepage vs the www version.
        • You have your Campaign setup to use the non-www version of your site.

        Hope this helps.

        Mike

          I saw your response on my other question and I didn't realise that they could be interlinked.

          Thanks for explaining 🙂

          • I have a Rel Canonical "notice" in my Crawl Diagnostics report. I'm presuming that means that the spider has detected a rel canonical tag and it is working as opposed to warning about an issue, is this correct?
