Pages with Redirect Chain
5 replies · Started by Julia on October 25, 2022
Dear Team,
I have one questions, perhaps you, as experts can support me here.
When I use the MOZ PRO SEO Tool, I receive following mistake on the
http version of my site:
Pages with Redirect Chain
301 Moved Permanently

What do I have to do?
1. Change something in WordPress?
2. Change something in Google search Console?
3. Change something with my Hosting Provider?
Your support would be appreciated here.
Thanks,
Julia
Hi there,
have a chat with your hosting provider. They should be able to deal with that in the DNS lookups or other server configs.
Thanks David,
What do I have to tell them?
What is the perfect setting that they have to do in your eyes?
What do I have to tell them specifically?
Looking forward for your feedback,
Julia
Let's take a step back. So this:
Pages with Redirect Chain
301 Moved PermanentlyIs not an error or a mistake.
When you add an SSL Certificate to your site, most hosts will automatically enforce HTTPS protocol on your site.
To do this they will commonly write a .htaccess rule ( or your servers equivalent ) to perform a 301 redirect for all HTTP URLs.
As a note - that is what happens on our own sites.
Options:
a. Ignore the 301 redirect in MOZ. Just test the HTTPs URL.
b. talk to your host if they have any alternatives.
Personally i would stick with option A
Thanks David
You're welcome
