solving redirect chain

Hello,

Thank you for contacting Rank Math and bringing your concern to our attention. I’m sorry for any inconvenience this issue may have caused you.

I’ve checked your site, and indeed there is a redirect chain for your HTTP version. Could you please try this redirection in your .htaccess file instead? This will redirect your site to HTTPS and to non-www:

# 301 REDIRECT HTTP TO HTTPS AND WWW TO NON-WWW
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{HTTPS} off [OR]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^www\. [NC]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^(?:www\.)?(.+)$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^ https://%1%{REQUEST_URI} [L,NE,R=301]
</IfModule>

Please generate a backup of your .htaccess first before making any changes.

I hope that helps.

Thank you.

Hello,

Force HTTPS can work alongside the rule. Let us know how that goes.

Looking forward to your update.

Thanks.

Hello,

Upon checking your site it is already using the non-www version for your main URL. The ahrefs error actually seems to be suggesting that there is a redirect of your main domain already.

Upon checking your site on the HTTP status tool, there’s still a chain of redirects from the HTTP URL: http://www.yourdomain.com/.

You may want to consult your web host regarding this and how to remove the second redirect.

You can proceed by using the WordPress default .htaccess file and clear your website cache.

If it does not work then make a point of consulting your web host team to fix the issue for you as there may be a redirect chain setup on your server end.

Hope this gives more clarification. Let us know if you have any other questions with you.
