301 http status code means that the requested resource has been permanently moved to a new URL. All future requests should use the new address.
The browser will automatically redirect the user to the new address, and search engines will update their indexes.
200 http status code is a standard successful HTTP server response. It means that the client’s request (e.g., from a browser) was successfully processed, and the server is delivering the requested data.
The user receives content without errors, and the page or application functions properly. If Code 200 is accompanied by data, the browser or program processes and displays it to the user.
