HTTP to HTTPS redirect

Why it matters

If http:// does not redirect to https://, two versions of the site exist and visitors may land on the insecure one.

How to fix it

1. Add a permanent 301 redirect from every http:// URL to its https:// version.
2. Enable HSTS once the redirect works everywhere.

Check it with

• Redirect Generator (.htaccess & Nginx) – Create 301 redirect rules for Apache .htaccess and Nginx, including HTTPS and www.
• Redirect Checker – Trace every hop of a redirect chain with status codes and timings.

Scoring: a passed check earns its full weight, a warning half and an error none. How the SEO score works
