WP 301 redirects were just what I needed when refreshing and starting my own SEO audit. I’m removing similar categories and keywords and shortening URLs and titles. This plugin saves me the extra step of manually adding a redirect. The rules are really nice and work!

It’s OK; I am not a huge fan of plugins building their interface into WordPress.

The free WordPress plugin “Redirection” looks nicer in my opinion and monitors URL changes much more reliably. WP 301 Redirects has so far missed all URL changes I have made.

Also, the entire reason I purchased the plugin was for “Link Checker,” which isn’t working. I have reported it to them, but it’s been a week and still no update from them.
