Frequently Asked Questions

    
Everything about .htaccess redirects.


    

      

        What is .htaccess?
        
.htaccess is a configuration file for Apache web servers. It lets you control redirects, URL rewriting, security rules, caching, and much more — without touching server-level config files. It lives in your website's root directory (usually public_html) and applies to all pages beneath it.

      

      

        What is the difference between 301 and 302 redirects?
        

        301 — Permanent: Tells search engines the page has moved permanently. Link equity (SEO value) transfers to the new URL. Use for permanent URL changes.


        302 — Temporary: Tells search engines it's a temporary move. The original URL stays indexed. Use for short-term changes (A/B testing, maintenance).

      

      

        Will redirects hurt my SEO?
        
Properly done 301 redirects help SEO by consolidating ranking signals to the new URL. They pass about 90-99% of link equity. Poorly done redirects (chains, loops, 302 for permanent moves) can hurt rankings. Google also takes time to update its index after a redirect.

      

      

        What are the most common .htaccess redirect rules?
        

        1. Force HTTPS: Redirect all http to https

        2. WWW to non-WWW: Standardize on one URL format

        3. 301 single-page move: Old URL → new URL

        4. Wildcard section: /old/* → /new/*

        5. Remove .html extension: Clean URLs for SEO

      

      

        How do I upload .htaccess?
        

        1. Log in to your hosting control panel (cPanel, Plesk, etc.)

        2. Open File Manager → navigate to public_html

        3. Enable "show hidden files"

        4. Edit or create .htaccess

        5. Paste the generated code and save


        Tip: Always backup your existing .htaccess before editing. A syntax error can take your site down.

      

      

        What if I use Nginx instead of Apache?
        
.htaccess doesn't work on nginx — nginx uses its own config file (/etc/nginx/nginx.conf or /etc/nginx/sites-available/). Our tool provides nginx alternative syntax when you toggle "Show nginx alternative" above. Just paste the nginx code into your server block.
