  • www / non-www page redirects are not configured | SEO test – How can I fix this?

    Posted by seohelper on November 7, 2020 at 7:22 pm

    So I keep running into this “**critical error**”. I have optimized my pages to the point of near perfection (bragging a bit, haha) but I keep running into this issue.

    I have Cloudflare running on my site and am forcing HTTPS, which I assume is the issue. I have declared my canonical url in the page, and submitted my sitemap to Google Search Console.

    Why am I still getting this **critical error**? What am I doing or not doing?

    Is cloudflare like nginx. Because this redirect url problem can be solve in inside nginx. So you need to configure cloudflare right.

    If your domain name is on GoDaddy, you have to redirect it from there. There’s an option to fix it. You may watch more about it on YouTube. I’ve had the same issue and I fixed it ?

    in your server block Apache or Nginx, you have to include both as

    yourdomain.com http://www.yourdomain.com

    Reason?
    If you redirect non-www to www, it will say avoid redirect chains.

    So adding it to your server block means, both are accesible to one who types www ( rare case ).

    A similar thing is for SSL Port 443 and Non-SSL 80, However, these things don’t affect SEO but getting green validations is good for a better sleep.
