Redirect Manager

Priority: high | Starter+

What it does and what it gives you

Manages 301 and 302 redirects. This prevents 404 errors and preserves link value when pages are removed or moved.

How to use it

  1. Go to Sitemaps → Redirect Manager.
  2. Click Add Redirect.
  3. Enter the source URL (old path without domain, e.g. /old-article).
  4. Enter the target URL (e.g. /new-article).
  5. Choose 301 (permanent) or 302 (temporary).
  6. Save and test the redirect.

Example

You delete an old post about "SEO tips 2022". You create a 301 redirect to your new post "SEO tips 2026".

Potential issues & solutions

  • Redirect doesn't work: check if the source URL has no query string and there's no conflict with existing pages.
  • Redirect loops: ensure the target doesn't link back to the source.
