Customer createrd 8234 redirects

Hello,

We apologize for the issue you are facing regarding the large number of redirects created by your customer. Having 8,234 redirects can indeed raise concerns about server performance and website speed, especially if many of them are not being utilized effectively.

While it’s important to maintain necessary redirects for SEO purposes, excessive and unused redirects can lead to slower response times and increased server load. Here are a few steps you might consider discussing with your customer:

1. Review and Audit Redirects: Encourage them to review the list of redirects and identify which ones are truly necessary. This can help in cleaning up the list significantly.
2. Use Redirection Statistics: Rank Math provides redirection statistics that can help identify which redirects are being accessed frequently. This information can be useful in deciding which redirects to keep and which to remove. You can find more about this in the Redirection Statistics section.
3. Bulk Actions: If they decide to remove unnecessary redirects, Rank Math allows for bulk actions, making it easier to manage multiple redirects at once.
   
4. Monitor Performance: After cleaning up the redirects, monitor the website’s performance to see if there are any improvements.

If your customer remains insistent on keeping all the redirects, it may be beneficial to document your concerns regarding potential impacts on performance for future reference.

Thank you for raising this concern! If you have any further questions or need assistance, feel free to reply to this ticket, and a human agent from the Rank Math Support team will assist you further.
