Searchengineoptimization.co.uk, a leading SEO services company, have launched a range of free search engine optimization tools, now available on their website. One of the features, the Server Header Checker Tool, will allow people to diagnose the status of a website by entering its URL.
SearchEngineOptimization.co.uk understand that it can be a disappointing and frustrating experience whenever somebody visits a website only to be presented with 404 errors, pages not showing properly or other error messages – and most users will simply leave the site straight away, probably never to return. Code is placed within URL headers to determine the current status of a webpage, but as most users are not well versed in programming languages, it just looks like the site is broken.
The free Server Header Checker search engine optimisation tool provided by Searchengineoptimization.co.uk can help to decipher the current status of a web page whenever a URL is entered into the search field. This will give an overview of the current coding used in a web page’s header – whether the code is 200 (the website is fine), 301 (has been moved permanently), 302 (has been moved temporarily), 304 (the site hasn’t been modified and may be out of date), 307 (is under a temporary redirect), 401 (is not currently within the public domain), 404 (the address cannot be found on the server) or a 410 (the URL no longer exists). This will help webmasters ensure that their pages are correctly redirected, so that both users and search engines don’t come across dead ends.
“Without correctly coding your web page headers, it can lead to confusion about the current status of these pages, and cause error messages to occur for users,” comments a spokesperson for Searchengineoptimization.co.uk. “Our free Server Header Checker tool breaks things down in an easy-to-understand manner and can outline the status of any web page once you enter the URL into the field. This highlights any issues so they can be resolved and errors fixed. We have many other free SEO tools available on our site to help anyone with their SEO campaign.”
