  • Setting Up a 301 Redirect for a Page on Your Site | Wix Expert

    < Back Promoting your site SEO (get found on Google) Setting Up a 301 Redirect for a Page on Your Site You can use the URL Redirect Manager to create 301 redirects for pages on your site. 301 redirects tell web browsers that the URL of a page on your site has changed permanently to a new URL. It also tells browsers that visitors who try to access the page's old URL should be sent to the new URL instead. This is useful when you want to change a page's URL, but you want to make sure that anyone who tries to use the old URL can still reach the page. For example, your site visitors may have bookmarked a previous URL for a page on your site. When they use the bookmark, you want to redirect them to the page's new URL so that they can still reach it. 301 redirects can also help you retain your page's ranking in search engine results after you change its URL. Search engines like Google may still use an old URL in some search results from previous times that they crawled and indexed your site. Creating a 301 redirect means anyone clicking that link in the search result will still be able to reach your page. Important: 301 redirects only work with custom domains . You can't set up a 301 redirect from free Wix URLs to a Premium site. If you're not sure if your domain is properly connected to Wix, you can check it using the Wix Domain Assistant . How 301 redirects work When you create a page for your site, Wix automatically creates a new URL for it. The URL is based on your site's domain and has a unique name for the page at the end of it (known as a URL slug). An example URL of this type is: "https://mystunningwebsite.com/ about ". If you update a page's URL slug, the old URL will no longer work. For example, if you change your page's URL to "https://mystunningwebsite.com/ about2 ", your site visitors will see a 404 error message page if they use the old URL. Your page authority for the page's old URL will also not carry over to the new URL. To stop this from happening, Wix automatically creates a 301 redirect for your page when you update the URL slug. Visit the URL Redirect Manager to edit or delete these automatic 301 redirects (after publishing your site). Wix Blog exception: For Wix Blog pages, 301 redirects will not automatically be created. When you update a URL slug for a Blog page, you need to use the URL Redirect Manager to manually create your own 301 redirect .

If you've moved your site to Wix, you should also create 301 redirects for your site's pages if it's not possible to create pages with URLs that match the URLs from your old site.
