Redirecting a page or domain

Send visitors from an old address to a new one.

On this page

With cPanel

  1. Open Redirects.
  2. Choose Permanent (301): it tells search engines the move is permanent and passes the old page's ranking to the new one.
  3. Choose the domain and enter the old path (for example /old-page) and the new address.
  4. Click Add.

Forcing HTTPS

To send everyone to the secure https:// version of your site, add this to the top of the .htaccess file in public_html:

RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{HTTPS} off
RewriteRule ^ https://%{HTTP_HOST}%{REQUEST_URI} [L,R=301]

WordPress users can do the same with a plugin or by setting the site address to https in Settings → General.
