Avoid landing page redirects

[Harvis]

In my case

http://alahas.com.do
302 Found
https://alahas.com.do/
301 Moved Permanently
https://www.alahas.com.do/
200 OK

Theres nothing in htacces that point to that 302 redirect also i have used really simple 301 redirect via htacces and still the 302 there. :/

Possibly this is a redirect configured in your CPanel. If it’s not in the .htaccess I would look on the server configuration level.

Hi Nimisha,

long redirect times are often caused by your hosting provider. You can try to enable the ‘301 .htaccess redirect’ option in the plugin settings. The .htaccess redirect is generally the fastest redirect option and should improve the redirect speed. If that doesn’t improve your sites loading speed, you can contact your hosting provider about this issue.

Having a redirect chain from http://www, https://www to https:// is not an issue. If users come in via the http:// domain there will only be one redirect to https://. You can set a preferred domain without in Google Webmaster Tools/Search Console. This will make sure that incoming organic traffic will be taken straight from the http:// to the https:// domain.

Hi Mikaeil,

your redirect chain is normal and nothing to worry about. Really Simple SSL will redirect the first requests to https://, from http://www to https://www and then WordPress will redirect to the site address, which is https:// in this case. Visitors coming in on the non-www domain will be redirected to the https:// domain directly.

Hi,

the redirect chain you currently have is normal. To increase the redirect speed, you can try to enable the .htaccess redirect option. The .htaccess redirect is generally the fastest redirect available, that can increase the loading speed. If the redirect speed doesn’t improve, you can contact your hosting provider about this issue.

Hi Anand,

see https://really-simple-ssl.com/knowledge-base/avoid-landing-page-redirects/ for code examples on how to change this.

[Spasov]

https://bambooapp.com- This is WordPress website.
In .htaccess file, I tried to add snippet code which you provided above but the site is broken down.
This is my .htaccess file content. I just want you to fix this.
BEGIN WordPress
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteRule ^index\.php$ – [L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule . /index.php [L]
</IfModule>

# END WordPress

I just checked your site, it redirects from
http://www
to
https://www
to
https://

Which is the secure and best practice redirect. So your site is configured correctly. For more information see this article:
https://really-simple-ssl.com/knowledge-base/avoid-landing-page-redirects/

To enable .htaccess, you can just use the .htaccess 301 redirect setting in settings/ssl, which will enable the best redirect for your site.

Same problem.
I tested my site with GTmetrix.
One of the anwers is :
Avoid landing page redirects for the following chain of redirected URLs.

http://ad1.in/
https://ad1.in/
https://www.ad1.in/

Have you got an idea to solve the problem.
Thanks for your help
All the best

[Rogier]

As commented in the previous post, this is the correct redirect, it should not be changed. Please see the attached article for more info on why this is the correct redirect. If you still want to have a non best practice redirect, you can follow the instructions in that article.

Please read previous comment 🙂

[Somnath Jadhav]

I am facing similar issue on my website https://www.somnathjadhav.com/. I have enables HSTS, its still not resolved. Do I need to wait or I can do something?

Please help.

[Rogier]

Hi Somnath,

Have you read our replies to the previous commenters? In what way is your issue different?

[Mateusz]

Hello
Thanks for all the replies above. You assure that the redirects make no difference to SEO, yet again seeing the ‘waterfall’ on GTMetrix is really worrying. The redirects take up to 1.36 seconds of the load time in my case. That’s half the time it takes to load the page.
Similarly to the users above me, the result I get is:
http://domain.pl/
https://domain.pl/
https://www.domain.pl/

Is there any way to deal with that?

Regards,
Mateusz

[Rogier]

Hi Mateusz,

A regular user won’t get a redirect, or at most once on the first visit. There will only be two redirects (as in your redirect chain) if the user explicitly types in the url both with http and without www (if the primary url is with www).

Redirect on first visit:
– if a user types in a http URL, the browser will remember the site should load over https.
No redirect at all:
– if a user clicks on a search result in a search engine they will get the https URL right away, so will net get any redirects.
– If the site has enabled HSTS with preload

If your redirection is slow, I would recommend to enable the .htaccess redirect, which is fastest, preferably with HSTS preload enabled.

When you add to your site to the preload list, you will notice your request will be declined if you don’t have the recommended redirect chain.

[Somnath Jadhav]

Thank you. It could help me to solve the issue.
