Correct redirection to HTTPS

In the article we will look in more detail: the HTTP, HTTPS protocols and the redirection process.
One secure address for every visitor

Keep customers who arrive through old HTTP links

We configure one permanent hop from every HTTP URL to its matching secure HTTPS page — without browser warnings, loops or unnecessary redirects.

  • page paths and query parameters are preserved;
  • visitors go straight to the primary hostname;
  • search engines see one primary website version.
HTTP addresses redirect in one step to the website's secure HTTPS version
Old links keep working while every visitor reaches one protected address.

What the business gains

Fewer lost visits

Bookmarks, adverts and old links no longer lead to an insecure or broken copy of the site.

More customer trust

Visitors immediately see a protected address and can continue to an enquiry, checkout or payment.

One primary version

Search engines are not left to choose between HTTP and HTTPS copies of the same content.

What the work includes

  1. Check the certificate and the current HTTP/HTTPS setup.
  2. Confirm the primary hostname, with or without WWW.
  3. Configure a permanent server-side 301 or 308 redirect.
  4. Preserve the path and query string, so /catalog?item=1 stays intact.
  5. Test the home page and internal pages, final URLs and redirect loops.

Service boundaries

What this service includes and what requires separate work
TaskIncluded hereWhy it is separate
HTTP → HTTPS with the URL preservedYesThis is the core deliverable.
Installing or renewing an SSL certificateSeparateHTTPS must already open without a warning.
Mixed content and internal HTTP linksSeparateThese require changes to page code and content.
index.php/index.html duplicates, canonical and sitemap.xmlSeparateEach has its own audit and scope.

We will explain any dependency before extra work begins, so the order does not expand unexpectedly. If you would rather investigate first, use the configuration guide or the manual redirect check.

What we need from you

We usually need hosting-panel or web-server configuration access. A hosted website builder may require only its domain settings. Do not send a password in the order form; we will agree on a secure access method.

To order the configuration, enter your domain or URL in the form below.
