# HTTP Status Codes

## What is Status Code

Status Code tells browser of your customer instructions on what to do. Whether it is "Redirect user to a different page instruction" or "You don't have access to tihs page".&#x20;

Also SEO engines are based on Status Codes. Which means that if you had a page https://yourstore.com/contact-us, and you want to change tihs page to https://yourstore.com/contact, you should create redirect rule with 301 status code. Google (and other search engines) will understand this change, and eventually change this url in their search results.
