Includes redirection control with the 301 redirect instead of 302 for domain forwarding.

Searchen Networks Inc., a web hosting and domain registration services company, today announced that they now offer domain name services which include redirection control including the 301 redirect for domain forwarding.

The company stated that until now, 301 redirects were mainly controlled on the server level, and possible only by the site administrator or those who had access to the actual web server and web site files of an Internet web site.

By having domain names registered through the company, registrants have access to a new and easy to use feature which assists domain owners in controlling which type of redirect is used when forwarding one domain name to another, without having to edit files, connect to a web server, or deal with a web site at all.

A customer service representative at the company stated, "On February 15th, 301 redirect controls were added to the user control panel offered by Searchen Networks Inc, eliminating the need to set up hosting on domains which require the 301 redirect".

301 Redirects are much more search engine friendly than the 302 which is often used by domain registrars without control by the domain owner, the company added in its release.
