For securing communications with your visitors, we recommend redirecting all HTTP traffic to HTTPS.
Prerequisites
  • A Web Hosting service with OnetSolutions
  • An SSL certificate installed (free SSL is included with all hosting plans)

​
Why Use HTTPS?

Security

Encrypts data between visitors and your server

SEO Boost

Google ranks HTTPS sites higher in search results

Trust

Shows the padlock icon in browsers

​
Setting Up HTTPS Redirection

Add the following code to your .htaccess file in your website’s root directory.
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{HTTP:X-Forwarded-Proto} !https
RewriteCond %{HTTPS} !on
RewriteRule ^(.*) https://%{HTTP_HOST}%{REQUEST_URI} [L,R=301]
This code:
  1. Checks if the X-Forwarded-Proto header is not set to “https”
  2. Checks if the HTTPS environment variable is not enabled
  3. If both conditions are met, redirects the visitor to the HTTPS version using a 301 (Permanent) redirect

​
Additional Steps

After enabling HTTPS, update all internal links, images, and assets to use https:// instead of http:// to avoid mixed content warnings.
You can also enable HTTPS redirection through cPanel’s “Redirects” feature or by enabling “Force HTTPS” in your domain settings.
