      I've got a redirect chain happening
      http > https> https.www.

      I can't find how to fix this one. My site is on siteground which forces the https at server level and then onto cloudflare.

      Anyone have any ideas?

        I've been on at them for this and they don't seem to understand the problem with a chain. It ends up on the right page doesn't it is the answer lol.
        I've looked at my htaccess for this and cant find the culprit. The server forces HTTPS but not HTTPS://WWW.

          Depending on what your sire provider allows, this may be tricky.

          Ideally you'd update the server level rule to point directly to the end URL form (https://www.).

            My home page URL http://seadwellers.com/ redirects to http://www.seadwellers.com/. Is this a problem?

            "The URL http://seadwellers.com/ redirects to http://www.seadwellers.com/.  Do you want to crawl http://www.seadwellers.com/ instead?" I was given this when I tried to crawl my home page using MOZ software.  I was not aware of this, do not know if it could be a problem concerning any aspect of SEO, etc? :

            To redirect or not to redirect...That is the question

            We have old product data that is being updated (approx 30k sku's).  Most of the old pages have been indexed and drive the majority of our online sales.  But, the updated products have different titles, H1's, etc and have been re-formatted for the better in terms of usability. So, should we redirect thousands of pages to the new pages?  Will Google be ok with that?...or should we reformat the current url's with the new data?  And, if we reformat current url's with new data...the fear is that the on-page elements that the pages are being pick up for will get wiped out, (be it the H1 in some cases or the title or alt tag for another, etc) because it's simply too much to retain them during the import. Please share

            Massive 301 Permanant Redirects

            Hello, First thing first, I am not moving my website to new domain neither changing my hosting. I just want to change internal page URLs to make them user and search engine friendly, URLs of categories and URLs of category filers. What I am talking about is massive 301 redirection. There are some pages which have backlinks and I have no doubt about using 301-permanant redirection for those pages. But as far as the category filter pages are concerned there are no backlinks for those pages, but yes they do have some authority. My website is 2months old. Now I want to know that Does massive redirection effects the website authority? Or avoid using permanent redirection for all pages instead use only for those pages which have back-links and avoid using for category filter pages. http://www.artorca.com/
