FAQ

Common questions about URL redirects

What's the difference between 301 and 302 redirects?+

301 means "permanently moved" — search engines transfer ranking power to the new URL and update their index. 302 means "temporarily moved" — search engines keep the original URL indexed and don't fully transfer link equity. Use 301 for permanent moves (site migrations, URL changes). Use 302 for temporary situations (A/B tests, maintenance).

Which redirect is best for SEO?+

For permanent URL changes, always use 301 redirects. Google has confirmed that 301 redirects pass nearly all PageRank (link equity) to the destination URL. 302 redirects are for temporary changes and may not preserve rankings.

How do I add a redirect in WordPress?+

Our tool generates .htaccess code that you can paste into your WordPress root directory. Or use a plugin like Redirection. For Apache servers, copy the "Apache .htaccess" output and paste it into your .htaccess file.

What's a meta refresh redirect and when to use it?+

A meta refresh redirect uses HTML meta tags to automatically forward users after a delay. It's not ideal for SEO (slower, can be seen as spammy) but works on any web server without backend access. Use it only when you can't configure server-level redirects.

Do JavaScript redirects hurt SEO?+

Yes, generally. JavaScript redirects are slower and may not be followed by all search engine crawlers (though Google executes JS better now). Always prefer server-level 301 redirects for SEO-critical redirects.

How do I redirect HTTP to HTTPS?+

Enter source "http://example.com/old-page" and target "https://example.com/old-page" (or new page). Select 301 permanent redirect. Our tool will generate the correct code for your server type.

Can I redirect an entire domain to another domain?+

Yes. Enter source as "/" (root) and target as the new domain URL. For Apache, use "Redirect 301 / https://newdomain.com/". Our tool supports domain-level redirects — just use the root path.

What's a redirect chain and why avoid it?+

A redirect chain happens when URL A redirects to B, which redirects to C. Each redirect dilutes link equity and slows page load. Always redirect directly to the final destination URL. Our tool generates single-hop redirects only.
