Super URL Keyword Re-Directs - Google Safe ?

[GAZ09]

Hi Guys

Any help would be much appreciated here.

Can anyone tell me if I was to use a keyword super url re-direct could it still be possible to rank high in Google ?? ??

Does Google have an issue with re-directs ??

Thanks Guys

Hi Gareth,

Google doesn't have issues with redirects when used correctly, but can you explain what you mean by a keyword super url re-direct?

thanks Andy

Well I have some products I sell on Amazon and am wondering if I should use a re-direct or the normal URL that Amazon creates for you..

So my thinking was what if I created a URL that had my keywords in and did some SEO on that URL.

Thanks

HI Gareth,

...if I should use a re-direct or the normal URL that Amazon creates for you..

Do you mean the URL to that product? And if so, where are you planning on linking from / to?

Hi Andy

sorry - yes I mean the URL of my product page , I was thinking of doing some Seo to my product page to help achieve more sales etc..

I would have a read of this post Gareth. It runs though some great pointers on Amazon optimisation. There is another good article here on SEJ.

I hope this helps.
