 * I ran a check on my website [http://www.bestworkhomejobs.com](http://www.bestworkhomejobs.com)
   and the report stated that my domain wasn’t 301 permanent and I’ve been trying
   to figure out how to fix it because the says it’s preventing my website from 
   being ranked in search engines. Does anyone know how to fix this?

 * Yes, 301 Permanent redirection is essential to maintain SEO ranking. You can 
   setup redirection either using .htaccess file or by using WordPress 301 redirects
   plugin. You can download plugin from here;

 * Hello, have you changed your URLs ? What was the previous domain? Normally, htaccess
   helps to redirect pages.
