      I'm an author, and after doing a search for one of my books I realized that no matter what was searched, the user was getting lead to the homepage. please see the attached picture.

      How do I fix this and is this hurting my SEO?

        I see the page was there on 4th May, 2012. See Google Cache (http://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?q=cache:tRCWWnSe7AAJ:www.ultimatebasictraining.com/workbook.html+&cd=1&hl=en&ct=clnk&client=firefox-a)

        However, today, it looks like there's a 302 / Temporary Redirect in Place on http://www.ultimatebasictraining.com/workbook.html

        HTTP/1.1 302 Found => Date => Fri, 01 Jun 2012 21:05:18 GMT Server => Apache Location => http://ultimatebasictraining.com Content-Length => 295 Connection => close Content-Type => text/html; charset=iso-8859-1

        Have your webmaster look at your .htaccess file and find out and remove the redirects or find why they were added in the 1st place.

        I hope this helps.
