TOPIC: Does Google index the non sef url as well?

Does Google index the non sef url as well? 13 years, 8 months ago #21364

Hi there
I have a very popular page on my site that ranks well on Google. I now want to change page for a new one but the 'non sef' url will not be the same (different menu item type). Does anyone know if Google also takes into consideration the non sef url? And if yes, should I just do a 301 redirect.

Thanks

David J

Hello,
yes, a non-SEF URL is still an URL for Google.

However, in the non-SEF format, that is using the query part of the URL, the 301 redirect will not work. You need to use mod_rewrite to process such redirects.
