301 for a Very Long URL

[littlecolby]

Hey gang,

Thanks ahead of time for the help.

I have a url somehow that is very very long:

http://www.colbysphotography.com/wedding-caterers-knoxville-east-tennessee/Here is an extensive list of wedding venues in the Knoxville and East Tennessee region. If you find that any of these links are not working, that the venues are no longer in business, or have a suggestion for an additional venue (at no charge), please contact Colby. Colby's Photography works hard on keeping this list helpful.

I have tried Yoast Premium on a wordpress site to redirect the url but it doesn't seem to keep. I've tried a few other redirect plugins with not help either.

I would love some suggestions on this one!

You can always go in and edit the .htaccess file yourself to put in the redirect. Here is some help with that, you'll likely find what you need under "301 Redirects in Apache": http://moz.com/learn/seo/redirection

Have you tried this one? http://urbangiraffe.com/plugins/redirection/ It's what we use, and it's always worked for me.

Good luck!

If you use cpanel for hosting, it is super easy.

If not, the same basic principle applies. If you want to send me the new url where you want it to go to, I can code you a redirect function that will work.
