 * Hi,
    I use Groups, a great plugin, thank you! What is the best practice for SEO?
   I use Groups to shield pages behind my paywall. A customer that isnt registered
   is sent to the 404 page. I installed a plugin to redirect the 404’s to a custom
   page that tells people they need to be registered to view the content and can
   choose between 301, 302, 303 and 307.
 * What is the best option in this case, or are there better SEO options?
 * Thanks and kind regards,
 * Borghees

 * Hi Borghees,
 * The best option for SEO is 301.
    Also, you can use the free plugin from [itthinx](http://www.itthinx.com)
   called [Groups 404 Redirect](https://wordpress.org/plugins/groups-404-redirect/)
 * Kind regards,
    George
