Basic Knowledge

What is .htaccess

.htaccess is a file used in Apache-based web servers to configure folder-level settings. It allows you to add redirects and access restrictions without modifying the server's global configuration file.

Difference between 301 and 302 Redirects

301 indicates a permanent redirect, while 302 indicates a temporary redirect. For site migrations or HTTPS consolidation, it's best practice to use 301 redirects to communicate to search engines that the URL's evaluation should be transferred.
