Frequently asked questions

Where does the .htaccess file go?

Place it in the document root of your site (or a subdirectory to scope rules to it). Apache must have mod_rewrite enabled and AllowOverride set for the rules to take effect.

Should I redirect www to non-www or the other way?

Either works — pick one and stay consistent so search engines see a single canonical host. This tool generates a 301 redirect for whichever direction you choose.
