How to solve the meta : A description for this result is not available because this site's robots.txt. ?

Hi, I have many URL for commercialization that redirects 301 to an actual page of my companies' site. My URL provider say that the load for those request by bots are too much, they put robots text on the redirection server ! Strange or not? Now I have a this META description on all my URL captains that redirect 301 : A description for this result is not available because this site's robots.txt.  If you have the perfect solutions could you share it with me ?  Thank You.

You should remove the robots.txt block on the redirect - if the redirect is implemented properly, and it directs straight to the new page and not through some sort of infinite loop, it should be fine for you server to handle.

The bots think those pages are real pages, thus they have them indexed - you have blocked them from visiting the redirect and seeing that it points to another page and that the redirect page should be replaced with the real page. If things are implemented properly, they would follow the 301 redirect and remove the URL of the redirect from the search engines.

If you provide a link to one of these redirecting URLs, I'm happy to take a look and see if I can help you.

Yes ! Thank You.

I will challenge the provider.

a link to one example :

<cite>www.sijavaislechoix.com/fr</cite>

redirect to:

http://www.desjardins.com/fr/particuliers/produits_services/assurances_personnes/pret/index.jsp

in the SERP:

si j'avais le choix... - if you could choose...

It looks you have a bit of redirect loop here - that might be what's hurting the server a bit
