I have set up Rank Math Redirection and added this to my .htaccess file.

# Rank Math 1.0.211 – https://rankmath.com/

<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteRule ^https\://taxprovider\.com/tax\-ratings https://taxprovider.com/ [R=301,L]
RewriteRule ^https\://taxprovider\.com/rate\-provider https://taxprovider.com/ [R=301,L]
RewriteRule ^/online\-tax\-preparation https://taxprovider.com/listing-category/online-tax/ [R=301,L]
RewriteRule ^https\://taxprovider\.com/local\-tax\-providers https://taxprovider.com/listing-category/local-tax-preparers/ [R=301,L]

</IfModule>

# Rank Math Redirections END

By way of example, this URL:

https:/taxprovider.com/tax-ratings

redirects to a 404 page

Hello, I’m sorry to hear that you’re experiencing issues with the redirections on your website. It seems that the redirection rules added to your .htaccess file might not be working as expected.

To ensure that the redirection rules are correctly set up, you can use the htaccess tester tool to debug and ensure that the rewrites are correct before adding them to the .htaccess file.

Additionally, it’s important to note that the redirection rules should not include the full URL, just the path after the domain name. Here’s an example of how the redirection rule should look:
```
RewriteRule ^tax-ratings$ https://rankmath.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/01/edit-htaccess-2.jpg [R=301,L]
```
