Hi bhold29,
I would look at your .htaccess file and see if you have a re-direct set up that is causing the 301 re-direct that Google Bot is picking up.
Let me know if this helps!

Cheers Tim… i actually think i have made an error but still not 100% sure.
In fetch as googlebot i was missing the ‘/’ off the end of the URL.
When i add the ‘/’ it works fine.
I pressure this means nothing is wrong?
hey bhold29,
Yeah, if it works with the slash that was the issue. You may have a re-direct set up to handle errors and thats why it was displaying that for you.
Thanks for replying and letting me know.
Tim S.
thanks… i just cant get my head around why my blog has vanished from google search results.
It was working fine before i added the second version of WP for my main site.
I have read up on this for hours but cant find any answers.
Hey bhold29,
Did you copy the main WordPress installation when you created the blog? One of the biggest reasons for missing rankings with Google is duplicate content.
Also, GoogleBot does not index your website all at once. They crawl portions of it. But it’s really tough to say. I’m glad you figured out how to fix the issue with GoogleBot though.
Tim
no i installed a fresh version, its defo been indexed by google.. just cant find it in any searches.
They are not even competitive terms…
do a site:yourdomain.com search
I was wondering if someone could help me?
I’ve been scouring through lots of different advice and cannot solve my problem.
I’m non-techie and trying to fix this myself.
Get redirect error 301 loop for site http://www.21daystoaslimmeryou.com
I’ve changed the static page to land on this page and the blog page (there was advice that it was empty it created a problem) – I can get it to not loop, but the page is all funky.
I’ve tried to look at .htaccess – and added code – but I have no idea what I am doing! Any help would be appreciated!
