      Hi, I start to use MOZ today. Start the first project and after crawling get an error with a redirect chain like this https://nimb.ws/1Ex2v3
      I am not sure what is the problem and how to solve it.
      My page is Joomla 4 and for the redirect using Admintools Joomla extension
      I am using .htaccess for redirecting from non-www to www

      RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^www\. [NC]
      RewriteRule ^(.*)$ https://www.%{HTTP_HOST}/$1 [R=301,L]
      

      and to https

      RewriteCond %{HTTPS} !=on [OR]
      RewriteCond %{HTTP:X-Forwarded-Proto} =http
      RewriteRule .* https://www.konveks.hr%{REQUEST_URI} [L,R=301]
      

      Thanks for any help

        How to handle SEO redirection after remove www

        www to non www redirect chain classified website

        Recently our https://bestclassifiedsusa.com free classifieds USA website we move from www to non www format. Now old urls still showing in Google SERP. When click they show 404 error pages due to removed old ads.
        We redirect www to non www version for main domain but still old cache pages affected.
        How to dynamically handle this case, all old www version ads pages auto redirect to relevant category pages?

        Site with 2 domains - 1 domain SEO opimised & 1 is not. How best to handle crawlers?

        Situation: I have a dual domain site:
        Domain 1 - www.domain.com is SEO optimised with product pages and should of course be indexed.
        Domain 2 - secure.domain.com is not SEO optimised and simply has checkout and payment gateway pages. I've discovered that Moz automatically crawls Domain 2 - the secure.domain.com site and consequently picks up hundreds of errors.
        I have put an end to this by adding a robots.txt to stop rogerbot and dotbot (mozs crawlers) from crawling domain 2. This fixes my errors in Moz reports however after doing more research into 'Crawler Control' I figure this might be the best option. My Question: Instead of using robots.txt to stop moz from crawing all of Domain 2 should I use on each page of domain 2? I believe this would then allow moz and google to crawl Domain 2 but also tell them both not to index it.
        My understanding is that this would be best, and might even help my overall SEO by telling google not to give any SEO value to the Domain 2 pages?

        Moz Pro Warning: Redirect Chain

        I have just signed up to a Moz Pro account, and after it finished crawling my website it gave me a warning about a redirection chain. http://elementpaints.com >> https://elementpIaints.com >> https://www.elementpaints.com I'm trying to find some more information about how to fix this problem but I'm not having much luck. This article I found even says it is not a problem: https://really-simple-ssl.com/knowledge-base/avoid-landing-page-redirects So now I'm even more confused, do I still need to fix this? If so, how do I do that? FYI: I have Lets Encrypt SSL cert installed on my server, and I'm using Cloudflare with Full SSL option and HSTS enabled, and "Always Use HTTPS" option is turned on. | http://elementpaints.com |

        Our crawler was not able to access the robots.txt file on your site

        Hello Mozzers! I've received an error message saying the site can't be crawled because Moz is unable to access the robots.txt. I've spoken to the webmaster and he can't understand why the robot.txt can't be accessed in Moz. https://www.thefurnshop.co.uk/robots.txt and Google isn't flagging anything up to us. Does anyone know how to solve this problem? Thanks

        Homepage duplicated content - 301 redirection - "Rel="canonical" - Headache

        Hello Moz community, I already have 301 redirection in my .htaccess , just like this: RewriteEngine On
        RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^mysite.com$
        RewriteRule ^(.*)$ "http://www.mysite.com/$1" [R=301,L] Mozpro shows that I have duplicated content for www.mysite.com & www.mysite.com\index.html I am a little lost, there is " 301 Redirect" and "Rel="canonical", moz replied me back that I need to use "Rel="canonical", but can one use both together? i also read on forums, if I 301 redirect index to /, there will be infinite loop and such. Another story, I am also getting IP Canonicalization error when I checked my SEO performance: Your site's IP ...* does not redirect to your site's domain name. This could cause duplicate content problems if a search engine indexes your site under both its IP and domain name.** Which adds to my headache. What is this one all about? There is no single thread or page here, to clear all this confusion and give a straight solution, but rather each page or thread says do a different thing. I am lost, so somebody help!
