Redirection from Non-www version to www version

Publishing help SEO

Hello everyone,

A few days ago I looked up in the forum and I found out that now it is possible to do a 301 redirection directly with webflow (the idea is that google index your domain only once and doesnt see it as a duplicate).

Maybe this would be available one day, in the mean time, and only with people using GoDaddy (yes… sorry…) I can show you how I did it. I didn’t find the answer here so i’ll put it myself.

So this is the way I have configured it so the non-www address redirects to the www version.

Hope this helps.

Cheers

thanks!

@bryantay and @ollo We launched this feature early last week.

You can set a custom domain as Default in the Hosting tab in Webflow and all other domains will 301 redirect to that Default domain.

Hello @cyberdave and @thesergie,

I wanted to try the new 301 permanent redirection from Webflow so I put the default webflow configuration on my dns on GoDaddy and deleted the 301 forwarding .

I put as a default domain my domain www.webdivan.com so when you out the non-www version you get rdirected and this doesnt seem to work. Actually webdivan.com doesnt even work.

Could you check this please?

Thank you.

Edit: nevermind, already fixed it!
