Any solutions for implementing 301s instead of 302 redirects in SharePoint 2010?

[Jessdyl]

We have an issue with Google indexing multiples of each page in our sitemap (www.upmc.com).

We've tried using rel_canonical, but it appears that GoogleBot is not honoring our canonicals. Specifically, any of the pages Google indexes that end without a file extension, such as .aspx are 302 redirected to a .aspx page.

Example - The following pages all respond as 302 redirects to http://www.upmc.com/services/pages/default.aspx

• http://www.upmc.com/services/
• http://www.upmc.com/services
• http://www.upmc.com/Services/
• http://www.upmc.com/Services

Has anyone been able to correct this inherent issue with Sharepoint so that the redirects are at least 301s?

Hi Kevin,

Afraid I don't use Sharepoint but a quick Google came up with the following- http://www.mavention.nl/blog/sharepoint-redirects-revisited-301-302

As you mentioned a 301 is better then a 302. Rel=canonical does take time for Google to take note did you give it enough time ?

To Answer the main question I hope the above link helps.
