Redirects

Redirects

You can create redirects to

There are 3 types of redirects:

  • Forced redirect
  • Fallback redirect
  • Automatic redirect

Forced redirect

Usa a force redirect to prioritize the redirect over the default structure.

You can use a forced redirect to ensure that users and search engines are taken to a specific URL, regardless of the default routing rules. This is particularly useful when you want to override existing paths or correct URL structures to improve user experience and SEO.

For example, if you have restructured your website and certain URLs have changed, a forced redirect will make sure that the old URLs still lead to the correct content.

Example

If you want to redirect all users to your download page, just create a forced redirect like this:

yourdomain.com/download

And just connect the page you wish to refer to.

Fallback redirect

Usa a fallback redirect to handle page not found issues.

You can implement a fallback redirect to guide users to a relevant page when they encounter a 404 error (Page Not Found). This improves user experience by preventing dead ends and can help maintain user engagement.

For instance, if a user lands on a broken link, a fallback redirect can automatically send them to the homepage or a custom 404 page with helpful navigation options.

Google Search Console

Automatic redirect

When you drag 'n drop items in your structure tree, the URL of that item is likely subject to changes. The automatic redirect will have your back!

The redirect module detects these changes and will automatically save the changed URLs as an automatic redirect. This automation ensures that any modifications to your website's structure do not result in broken links or loss of traffic.

For example, if you move a page from one category to another within your site, the automatic redirect will update the URL accordingly and set up the necessary redirect to ensure users and search engines can still find the content at its new location.
