Hi, love your product. Gone from paid yoast to your plugin and can’t wait what will paid version bring. Keep up the good work. Now the questions. I’m using URL like this https://mydomain.com and using cpanel on my server.
1. Should I add to google search console beside the https://mydomain.com also https://www.mydomain.com, http://mydomain.com http://mydomain.com
2. before the new UI in search console there was an option to make one URL of your domain favourite I’d like it to be https://mydomain.com Is there still an option to do that? Is that still necessary?
3. Do you have any other suggestion when you add new site to google search console?
Thank you

Hello,

Thank you for getting in touch with us and for the positive feedback, we do appreciate.

You should only verify one version of your site, the version your site is currently accessible at then redirect all other versions of your site to your main domain version.

To redirect all requests to non-www, add the following lines at the beginning of your website’s .htaccess file:
```
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^www.yourdomain.com [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://yourdomain.com/$1 [L,R=301]
```
To redirect all requests to WWW version of your site, use the following:
```
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^yourdomain.com [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://www.yourdomain.com/$1 [L,R=301]
```
Replace yourdomain.com with your actual domain name.

Hope that helps and please do not hesitate to let us know if you need our assistance with anything else.

Thank you very much. I was a little confused because I got an email from google to add all the version of my domain and to check them out. All redirection can be done in cpanel or they must be done in .htaccess?

Hello,

We usually recommend adding them to your .htaccess file. It is easy to implement and make any changes if need be. Just head over to Rank math > General Settings > htaccess

Hope that helps. If you have any further question(s), please let us know. Thank you.
