htaccess Redirect Generator

Create .htaccess redirect rules for Apache and LiteSpeed servers. Paste old and new URLs for page redirects, and add HTTPS and www rules in one block of clean, ready-to-paste code.

How to add redirects in .htaccess

List each redirect as old path | new URL. Add * at the end of a folder path to redirect everything inside it.
Tick Force HTTPS and choose www if your site needs them.
Back up your .htaccess file using your hosting file manager.
Paste the code above the WordPress block, save, and test each old URL in a private window.

301 vs 302 redirects

Code	Use when	SEO
301	The page has moved permanently	Signals move to the new URL
302	The move is temporary	Old URL usually stays indexed

Tips for clean redirects

Redirect to the closest matching page, not always the homepage.
Avoid chains: point old URLs straight to the final page.
Update internal links to the new URLs too.
On WordPress, the Rank Math Redirections module or a redirection plugin is an easy alternative.

Check your list for chains with the redirect chain checker, use Nginx redirects for Nginx servers, and plan bigger moves with the site migration checklist.
