Redirect with HTTP Status Code - PHP :
Redirect one url to another url using php is simply run with "header ("Location: redirectURL");" . But redirect with HTTP Status Code is more efficient to optimize for search engines.
Here i will explain about php redirect with http status code. These http status code is common for all php versions.
<?php
function httpRedirect($code,$redirectURL){
static $httpType = array (
100 => "HTTP/1.1 100 Continue",
101 => "HTTP/1.1 101 Switching Protocols",
200 => "HTTP/1.1 200 OK",

302 => "HTTP/1.1 302 Found",
303 => "HTTP/1.1 303 See Other",
304 => "HTTP/1.1 304 Not Modified",

403 => "HTTP/1.1 403 Forbidden",
404 => "HTTP/1.1 404 Not Found",
405 => "HTTP/1.1 405 Method Not Allowed",

409 => "HTTP/1.1 409 Conflict",
410 => "HTTP/1.1 410 Gone",
411 => "HTTP/1.1 411 Length Required",
412 => "HTTP/1.1 412 Precondition Failed",
413 => "HTTP/1.1 413 Request Entity Too Large",
414 => "HTTP/1.1 414 Request-URI Too Large",
415 => "HTTP/1.1 415 Unsupported Media Type",
416 => "HTTP/1.1 416 Requested range not satisfiable",
417 => "HTTP/1.1 417 Expectation Failed",
500 => "HTTP/1.1 500 Internal Server Error",
501 => "HTTP/1.1 501 Not Implemented",
502 => "HTTP/1.1 502 Bad Gateway",
503 => "HTTP/1.1 503 Service Unavailable",
504 => "HTTP/1.1 504 Gateway Time-out"
);
header($httpType[$code]);
header ("Location: $redirectURL");
}
httpRedirect(301,"http://techniqzone.blogspot.in/");
?>
Normally we do only header("Location: url"), here add header http status before redirect to given url.
