Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know about the Htaccess Redirect Generator.

What is an .htaccess file?

.htaccess is a configuration file used by Apache web servers, and by LiteSpeed which supports the same rules. It controls things like redirects, security and caching for the folder it is placed in, usually the root of your website.

What is the difference between a 301 and 302 redirect?

A 301 redirect means the page has moved permanently, so search engines transfer ranking signals to the new URL. A 302 is temporary and tells search engines to keep the old URL indexed. Use 301 for almost all SEO purposes.

Will these rules work on Nginx?

No. Nginx does not read .htaccess files and uses its own configuration syntax. These rules are for Apache and LiteSpeed servers, which most shared hosting providers use.

My site shows an error after adding the rules. What should I do?

Restore your backup of .htaccess right away. A 500 error usually means a typo, a conflicting rule, or that mod_rewrite is not enabled. Add rules one block at a time and test after each change.
