      Hi

      I have swaped from HTTP to HTTPS and put a redirect on for HTTP to redirect to HTTPS.  I also put www.xyz.co.uk/index.html to redirect to www.xyz.co.uk

      When I fetch as Google it shows up redirect!

      Does this mean that I have too many 301 looping?

      Do I need the redirect on index.html to root domain if I have a rel conanical in place for index.html

      htaccess (Linix) -

      RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^xyz.co.uk
      RewriteRule (.*) https://www.xyz.co.uk/$1 [R=301,L]

      RewriteRule ^$ index.html [R=301,L]

        when it shows redirect, it just says it is redirected. Open the page in webmaster tools will tell you how (301/302/...) and where it is directed to. So fetch that url.

        So if you fetch the index.html, it is redirected 301 to www.xyz.co.uk - so you need to fetch this by just click on "fetch as google" with no input in the textbox.

          Hey!!

          We have a coupons and deal website. Coupons are added and removed from the website on a daily basis. But crawler isn't crawling it that often. Lately we started fetching and rendering the page, but that is a time taking task as we have more than 500 stores with coupons.

          So, I was looking for some API or some method using which the crawler would crawl the website as defined. Suppose "x" store page should be crawled every alternate day as we daily update the coupons there, whereas "y"  store coupons are update fortnightly so , they can be crawled weekly.

          Can somebody suggest me something..

          • What is Google supposed to return when you submit an image URL into Fetch as Google? Is a few lines of readable text followed by lots of unreadable text normal?
