301s can effectively be used to inform a search engine that you have moved page a to a new permanent location. While they help make matters easier for webmasters, they are also so very sloooooooooooooow. A WebmasterWorld member wants to know if there is any way to expedite the process.
The only search engine that seems to somewhat support this is Yahoo's Dynamic URL Rewriting, where you can get your site crawled more efficiently by informing Yahoo of "dynamic parameters in URLs that they'd like Yahoo! to ignore, which [Yahoo will] then automatically rewrite accordingly."
However, there really is no easy way to speed up the 301 process, from what we know. Do you know any way to do it? What are your methods?
