Dear all,
I plan to do this:
1. Use the url format e.g. myfunction/1234/meaningless-slug-version-1
2. Google will index the url
3. I later change the slug to: myfunction/1234/meaningless-slug-version-2
Problem: Google might now flag "duplicate content" and/or confusion
To resolve the problem (in pseudo-code):
def myfunction():
row = db.tbl(request.args(0))
if row.slug <> request.args(1):
raise HTTP(301,'Redirected <a href="%s">here</a>' %newlocation,
Location='myfunction/1234/meaningless-slug-version-2')
My idea is now Google will see:
a) that my old url is permanently redirected,
b) there is no confusion in Google's index,
c) I do not need a canonical tag
Disadvantage, my site is a bit slower in respect of the old urls.
I am not a SEO expert, so I would appreciate any comments and criticizism
of the above and any other tips/strategies that might spring to mind.
Best regards, D
