If your website has installed an SSL certificate for added security, you will want to add a redirect so your website now loads on https:// making use of the encryption rather than the old unencryted version on http://.

The first step is to log into your cPanel account. If you are unsure on how to do this, please view the following help article – ‘How to log into cPanel‘.

Under the ‘Domains‘ title, click onto ‘Redirects‘.

Select and enter the respective information for the redirect.

• Type – Select ‘Permanent(301)’ .
• http://(www.)? – Select the domain from the drop down menu.
• / – Leave blank.
• Redirects to – Enter the full https:// domain i.e. https://www.your-domain.com
• Redirection type – Select ‘Redirect with or without www’.
• Wild Card Redirect – Tick this option.

Once you have entered the redirect information, select ‘Add‘ to complete.

Redirecting your website from HTTP to HTTPS is now complete.
