301 - Specific Domain
-
In Google our main website page url is <cite class="_Rm">www.wheelchairparts.com</cite> it has 25 root domain links & PA 34.
When you go to our website from there, the homepage url is http://www.wheelchairparts.com/store/pc/home.asp it only has 3 root domain links & PA 27.
Do I need to add a 301 Redirect here? What kind of redirect is on it now?
Thanks,

Hi there
There currently isn't a redirect in place. I would do a 301 redirect, you can learn more about how to do so here.
I would also make sure that your site doesn't have other URLs with these issues. Take a look at Google's duplicate content resource to get tips on how to fix these issues.
Also - make sure you do a backlink audit to find any links that are pointing to this extension URL and update them accordingly.
Hope this helps! Good luck!

WAIT!
Just so that you don't run into trouble. Its clear to me you already have a 301 redirect in place.
Also you can check with tools like this
http://www.internetofficer.com/seo-tool/redirect-check/If you make changes you may put your homepage in an infinite loop! "home.asp" will redirect to "/" and then back again.
Make sure you look at your index.asp or other index files and also your htaccess, for the code that redirects to your "home.asp". You will need to remove it.
Also just a helpful hint, when I look through your code you have a TON of embedded javascript. Try to put it in a JS file if your technically able to.

It is 301 redirected. Why is there a loss of PA and Root Domains?
