data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>The internet has arguably made a lot of things more convenient for us. From paying bills, to online shopping, academic research, and entertainment &#8211; there\u2019s little you can\u2019t do with a computer and an internet connection.<\/p><p>However, this also means that we\u2019re sharing a lot of personal data with websites, including login details (usernames and passwords) and credit card information. Naturally, when we share this information online, we expect the websites we use to keep it secure.<\/p><p>This means that website owners have a responsibility to ensure that their site visitors\u2019 or customers\u2019 data is kept safe. So, if you\u2019re a website owner, you also share this duty!<\/p><p>One of the basic ways to make your site more safe and secure is by <strong>migrating to<\/strong> <strong>HTTPS from HTTP<\/strong>. In this article, we\u2019ll go over what makes HTTPS a better choice and how you can redirect your WordPress website from HTTP to HTTPS.<\/p><h2>What Is HTTPS and Why You Should Use It<\/h2><p>HTTPS stands for <strong>Hypertext Transport Protocol Secure<\/strong>. It\u2019s an update on HTTP, which lacks the level of <strong>security <\/strong>that comes with HTTPS. HTTPS uses SSL (Secure Socket Layer), i.e. TLS (Transport Layer Security) certificates to ensure a secure connection between the browser and the website.<\/p><p>So basically, any information exchanged between the user and the website gets <strong>encrypted<\/strong>, so that it can\u2019t be stolen and misused by hackers, even if they manage to intercept the traffic.<\/p><p>A good way to determine if the website you\u2019re visiting runs on HTTPS is by checking the URL address line. Most of the time, you won\u2019t directly see the prefix before the domain.<\/p><p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-1278\" src=\"https:\/\/www.domainnamesanity.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/sample-domain.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"376\" height=\"36\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.domainnamesanity.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/sample-domain.jpg 376w, https:\/\/www.domainnamesanity.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/sample-domain-300x29.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 376px) 100vw, 376px\" \/><\/p><p class=\"image-description\">This is what you\u2019ll see in the URL address line on our website<\/p><p>The first sign that a website uses HTTPS is the <strong>padlock<\/strong> before the domain. The padlock is a sign of a secure connection, i.e. a HTTPS connection. To test if a site does indeed run on HTTPS, simply select the URL address, and then click at the end (after the <strong>com<\/strong>). Once you click, the address will appear <em>with<\/em> the type of hypertext protocol that it uses, like so:<\/p><p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-1279\" src=\"https:\/\/www.domainnamesanity.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/sample-domain-https.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"396\" height=\"37\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.domainnamesanity.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/sample-domain-https.jpg 396w, https:\/\/www.domainnamesanity.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/sample-domain-https-300x28.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 396px) 100vw, 396px\" \/><\/p><p class=\"image-description\">An example of a website that runs on HTTPS<\/p><p>Once you click at the end of the URL address after selecting it, you\u2019ll be able to see if a website runs on HTTPS.<\/p><h3>Why You Need HTTPS For Your Website<\/h3><p>As we already mentioned, HTTPS comes with significantly heightened security in comparison to HTTP. Here\u2019s an overview of other perks you\u2019d get when you redirect your WordPress website to HTTPS:<\/p><ul><li>Since August 2014, <a href=\"https:\/\/webmasters.googleblog.com\/2014\/08\/https-as-ranking-signal.html\">HTTPS has become a ranking factor in Google search results<\/a>. This means that having your website run over HTTPS <em>rather than <\/em>HTTP will improve your SEO ranking!<\/li><li>HTTPS is more secure since it requires a TLS handshake for authentication. So, your site visitors\u2019 data will be safe! Plus, they\u2019ll feel confident about using your website every time they see the padlock next to the URL address. This is likely to improve your conversions and sales.<\/li><li>In fact, the new HTTP\/2 protocol &#8211; which enhances site performance and increases page loading speed &#8211; requires HTTPS to run. So, if you want to optimize your site with the HTTP\/2 protocol, you\u2019ll definitely need to migrate to HTTPS.<\/li><li>When someone visits a HTTPS website while coming from another HTTPS website, they have a more accurate referral data in Google Analytics. By contrast, if someone visits a HTTP website from a HTTPS website, most of this referral data will be lost in the process. So, to improve your referral data, migrate to HTTPS!<\/li><\/ul><p>Now that you know the benefits of redirecting your WordPress website from HTTP to HTTPS, let\u2019s take a look at how to do it.<\/p><h2>How to Redirect Your WordPress Website from HTTP to HTTPS<\/h2><p>There are a couple of easy steps in the process of redirecting your WordPress website from HTTP to HTTPS. Basically, the process is:<\/p><ol><li>Back-up your website.<\/li><li>Activate your TLS certificate.<\/li><li>Update the links to the pages on your WordPress.<\/li><li>Edit your .htaccess\/config file.<\/li><\/ol><p>If you\u2019re not feeling comfortable with handling any code, you can temporarily use a WordPress plugin, such as <a href=\"https:\/\/wordpress.org\/plugins\/really-simple-ssl\/\">Really Simple SSL<\/a>. However, we don\u2019t recommend this as a permanent solution. Although Really Simple SSL works great, a plugin is an additional layer that can cause bugs and problems in the future. Still, we\u2019ll also go over how you can use a plugin as a temporary solution to redirect your WordPress website from HTTP to HTTPS.<\/p><h3>Step 1: Back-Up Your Website<\/h3><p>The first step before <em>any<\/em> and <em>all<\/em> website-wide changes is backing up your website. We\u2019ll be making changes to the .htaccess file of your website, and changing other important settings that if done wrong, can cause some temporary chaos.<\/p><p>So, before doing anything, make sure to back-up your website!<\/p><h3>Step 2: Activate Your TLS Certificate<\/h3><p>First of all, does your host provide you with free SSL\/TLS certificates? (<a href=\"https:\/\/www.domainnamesanity.com\/web-hosting.php\">We do<\/a>.) It\u2019s super important to have a host that does. A TLS certificate is website security 101!<\/p><p>If your host does provide free TLS certificates, they most likely support <a href=\"https:\/\/letsencrypt.org\/\">Let\u2019s Encrypt<\/a>. Let\u2019s Encrypt is a <strong>free, automated, and open certificate authority.<\/strong><\/p><p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-1274\" src=\"https:\/\/www.domainnamesanity.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/lets-encrypt-1024x446.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1024\" height=\"446\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.domainnamesanity.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/lets-encrypt-1024x446.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.domainnamesanity.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/lets-encrypt-300x131.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.domainnamesanity.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/lets-encrypt-768x335.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.domainnamesanity.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/lets-encrypt.jpg 1074w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/p><p class=\"image-description\">You can use Let\u2019s Encrypt to get and implement your TLS certificate<\/p><p>Once you have this, you can access <a href=\"https:\/\/certbot.eff.org\/\">Certbot<\/a>, which will give you all the information you need on how to implement Let\u2019s Encrypt on your website server based on which operating system and web server you\u2019re using.<\/p><h3>Step 3: Update the Links on Your WordPress Website<\/h3><h4>Updating the Link to Your Admin Area<\/h4><p>The first thing to do is <strong>update the link to your WordPress admin dashboard.<\/strong><\/p><p>To do this, you\u2019ll need to connect to your server via <strong>SFTP client.<\/strong><\/p><p>Next, you\u2019ll need to find the <strong>wp-config.php<\/strong> file. Open it in any code or text editor (like Notepad). Add this line of code anywhere before the end (before it says <em>That\u2019s all, stop editing!<\/em>)<\/p><div class=\"pop-out\">define(&#8216;FORCE_SSL_ADMIN&#8217;, true);<\/div><p>Then, <strong>save <\/strong>the file, and reupload it back into the WordPress root folder.<\/p><p>Now, try to access your WordPress admin dashboard. You should be able to see the padlock &#8211; which means your connection is running over HTTPS and is secure!<\/p><h4>Updating the Links to the Pages On Your Website<\/h4><p>Your next step will be updating the URL address links to the various pages of your website.<\/p><p>To begin with, <strong>update the site address.<\/strong> Go to <strong>Settings &gt; General<\/strong>.<\/p><p>Find your website address URL. If the link was <strong>http:\/\/www.domain.com<\/strong> up to now, add that important <strong>s<\/strong> and turn it into <strong>https:\/\/www.domain.com, <\/strong>like so:<\/p><p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-1273\" src=\"https:\/\/www.domainnamesanity.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/update-site-address-URL-HTTPS.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"933\" height=\"150\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.domainnamesanity.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/update-site-address-URL-HTTPS.jpg 933w, https:\/\/www.domainnamesanity.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/update-site-address-URL-HTTPS-300x48.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.domainnamesanity.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/update-site-address-URL-HTTPS-768x123.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 933px) 100vw, 933px\" \/><\/p><p class=\"image-description\">Change your website URL to begin with HTTPS rather than HTTP<\/p><p>Then, click on <strong>Save Changes.<\/strong><\/p><p>After you\u2019ve updated this part, you should go over the rest of the links to the various pages, content, and media files (such as images) of your website. Make sure all the URLs run on HTTPS rather than HTTP.<\/p><h3>Step 4: Edit Your Server File<\/h3><p>The next step will be editing your <strong>.htaccess <\/strong>or <strong>NGINX config <\/strong>file so as to redirect HTTP to HTTPS using the <strong>301 redirects<\/strong>.<\/p><h4>If Your Server Runs NGINX<\/h4><p>Which file in your server you need to edit will vary depending on whether your server runs <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nginx.com\/\">NGINX<\/a> or <a href=\"https:\/\/www.apache.org\/\">Apache<\/a>.<\/p><p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-1277\" src=\"https:\/\/www.domainnamesanity.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/redirect-HTTPS-on-NGINX-1024x344.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1024\" height=\"344\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.domainnamesanity.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/redirect-HTTPS-on-NGINX-1024x344.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.domainnamesanity.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/redirect-HTTPS-on-NGINX-300x101.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.domainnamesanity.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/redirect-HTTPS-on-NGINX-768x258.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.domainnamesanity.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/redirect-HTTPS-on-NGINX-1536x516.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.domainnamesanity.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/redirect-HTTPS-on-NGINX.jpg 1921w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/p><p class=\"image-description\">How to redirect HTTPS on NGINX<\/p><p>If your server runs NGINX, you\u2019ll need to connect to it via <strong>SFTP client<\/strong> and add the following code to your <strong>config<\/strong> file:<\/p><div class=\"pop-out\">server {<br \/>listen 80;<br \/>server_name domain.com www.domain.com;<br \/>return 301 https:\/\/domain.com$request_uri;<br \/>}<\/div><h4>If Your Server Runs Apache<\/h4><p>If your server runs Apache, you can redirect your WordPress website to HTTPS by adding code to the <strong>.htaccess<\/strong> file.<\/p><p class=\"image-description\">How to redirect your WordPress website to HTTPS on Apache<\/p><p>You can access the .htaccess file by connecting to your sever via SFTP client. If you can\u2019t see the file, click on <strong>show hidden files.<\/strong><\/p><p>Once you\u2019ve opened the file, copy the following code inside, then <strong>save it<\/strong>:<\/p><div class=\"pop-out\">RewriteEngine On<br \/>RewriteCond %{HTTPS} off<br \/>RewriteRule ^(.*)$ https:\/\/%{HTTP_HOST}%{REQUEST_URI} [L,R=301]<\/div><h3>Step 5: Test and Run!<\/h3><p>After updating all the links on your WordPress website and changing the appropriate files in your WordPress root folder, a good way to check how well you\u2019ve implemented TLS security is running your website through an <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ssllabs.com\/ssltest\/\">SSL Test like the one offered by Qualys<\/a>.<\/p><p>This test will detect the TLS certificates on your website, and tell you if there\u2019s anything you can improve about your security.<\/p><p>Next, it\u2019s time to check if you\u2019ve missed anything &#8211; like if you forgot to redirect a certain piece of content with a new URL address that includes HTTPS. Perhaps when you were updating the page links, you forgot to make sure that a certain image file runs on HTTPS?<\/p><p>In any case, there\u2019s another awesome website test tool you can use &#8211; <a href=\"https:\/\/www.jitbit.com\/sslcheck\/\">SSL Check<\/a>. SSL Check tests your entire website to see if there\u2019s any piece of content that\u2019s left insecure.<\/p><p>Once that\u2019s done, your update site is ready to go live!<\/p><h3>Alternative: Using a WordPress Plugin<\/h3><p>If you don\u2019t feel comfortable doing all this coding yourself, you can use a WordPress plugin such as <a href=\"https:\/\/wordpress.org\/plugins\/really-simple-ssl\/\">Really Simple SSL<\/a> to redirect your WordPress website from HTTP to HTTPS.<\/p><p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-1275\" src=\"https:\/\/www.domainnamesanity.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/really-simple-ssl-plugin.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"716\" height=\"238\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.domainnamesanity.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/really-simple-ssl-plugin.jpg 716w, https:\/\/www.domainnamesanity.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/really-simple-ssl-plugin-300x100.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 716px) 100vw, 716px\" \/><\/p><p class=\"image-description\">The Really Simple SSL plugin is an easy way to redirect HTTP to HTTPS<\/p><p>As we mentioned, this is more of a temporary solution.

Plus, the plugin is regularly kept up-to-date by the developer, so even as a temporary solution, it\u2019s kept quite smooth and tidy!<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-02d9db7 elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"02d9db7\" data-element_type=\"section\" data-e-type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-e3db840\" data-id=\"e3db840\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-e-type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-60a6169 article-end elementor-widget elementor-widget-spacer\" data-id=\"60a6169\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"spacer.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-spacer\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-spacer-inner\"><\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-565995e elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"565995e\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h3 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">View Related Articles<\/h3>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-21bb133 elementor-widget elementor-widget-spacer\" data-id=\"21bb133\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"spacer.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-spacer\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-spacer-inner\"><\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-404e6d4 elementor-posts__hover-none elementor-grid-3 elementor-grid-tablet-2 elementor-grid-mobile-1 elementor-posts--thumbnail-top elementor-card-shadow-yes elementor-widget elementor-widget-posts\" data-id=\"404e6d4\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-settings=\"{&quot;cards_masonry&quot;:&quot;yes&quot;,&quot;cards_columns&quot;:&quot;3&quot;,&quot;cards_columns_tablet&quot;:&quot;2&quot;,&quot;cards_columns_mobile&quot;:&quot;1&quot;,&quot;cards_row_gap&quot;:{&quot;unit&quot;:&quot;px&quot;,&quot;size&quot;:35,&quot;sizes&quot;:[]}}\" data-widget_type=\"posts.cards\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-posts-container elementor-posts elementor-posts--skin-cards elementor-grid\">\n\t\t\t\t<article class=\"elementor-post elementor-grid-item post-1270 post type-post status-publish format-standard has-post-thumbnail hentry category-web-optimizing\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-post__card\">\n\t\t\t\t<a class=\"elementor-post__thumbnail__link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.domainnamesanity.com\/blog\/wordpress-force-https\/\" >\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-post__thumbnail\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"640\" height=\"480\" src=\"https:\/\/www.domainnamesanity.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/Redirect-HTTP-to-HTTPS.jpg\" class=\"attachment-large size-large wp-image-1271\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.domainnamesanity.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/Redirect-HTTP-to-HTTPS.jpg 900w, https:\/\/www.domainnamesanity.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/Redirect-HTTP-to-HTTPS-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.domainnamesanity.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/Redirect-HTTP-to-HTTPS-768x576.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><\/div>\n\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-post__text\">\n\t\t\t\t<h6 class=\"elementor-post__title\">\n\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/www.domainnamesanity.com\/blog\/wordpress-force-https\/\" >\n\t\t\t\tHow To Redirect Your WordPress Site from HTTP to HTTPS\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t<\/h6>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-post__excerpt\">\n\t\t\t<p>The internet has arguably made a lot of things more convenient for us.
