Googlebot 301 redirects
-
First off: great plugin! Thank you for your hard work!
Second: I am google is seeing 301s related to the plugin. I am wondering if this is on your radar or if it’s not a big deal.
Testing: I first noticed this when testing with Google’s PageSpeed insights on a site with the plugin enabled. Categorized via “Avoid landing page redirects” google is showing 301’s like below:
https://site.com/?sccss=1&ver=4.8.1 -> https://site.com/ -> https://site.com/
You can see directly this if you use the app httpstatus.io site by testing “https://niftymarketing.com/?sccss=1&ver=4.8.1”. Initially, you will see a 200 but if you switch the user agent (after clicking response headers button) from “your browser” to “googlebot 2.1”. Googlebot shows two 301s and one 200 headers whereas “your browser” shows just one 200 response. Exactly what Google was showing above.
Thoughts?
