Redirecting issue on Google Search Console

How can I fix that? our main website is www.litespace.io but we are also directing https://litespace.io to https://www.litespace.io to

Your domain redirects, canonical, and sitemap all look fine, with www. as the primary.

Usually in GSC when I see that it’s because of how the GSC property was setup. If you created the property to https://litespace.io you might get weird results.

Generally I’d create it now as a domain property, litespace.io which seems to give more consistent reporting.

So on webflow we should set it up as https://litespace.io instead of https://www.litespace.io?

In addition, I have an issue regarding google not crawling our meta description, could this lead to that as well?

No, Webflow is setup fine. A “domain property” refers to how you setup the property on GSC.

Setting up GSC with a property of https://litespace.io is a different thing from setting up GSC with a “domain property” of litespace.io.

When you setup a non-domain property, GSC sees litespace.io and www.litespace.io as two unrelated websites. Domain properties fix that.

No, that’s more likely related to your previous site and robots.txt blocking. I answered on that question as well.

Hey All!

I’d like to jump into this with a similar issue. I just created a GSC account for my website www.musicverter.com. However, when I submitted my first sitemap, GSC told me I had a few pages with redirects. They are as follows:

It seems as if I need to add a new property within GSC to have reporting be consistent. If that’s the case, what domain would you recommend I create a new property with? I believe my current property within GSC is set up as the following:

Thanks in advance!

The key is consistency.

  • Generally, use the domain property so that all the @ and www subdomains are properly consolidated into a single reporting property. It’s a good approach.
  • In Webflow, make sure you have a default domain set, typically the www version.
  • Republish, and your auto-gen sitemap XML should show that default domain in its URLs.
  • When you submit your sitemap to GSC, submit the canonical path;

https://www.musicverter.com/sitemap.xml

As long as you are consistent in your use of the default domain name, you shouldn’t have these redirect issues.
