Step By Step Guide

Step 1: Open the Redirection Dashboard

From your WordPress admin panel, go to:

SEO Repair Kit → Redirection

This opens the Redirection Manager dashboard, where all redirect rules are listed.

Step 2: Review Existing Redirects

On the dashboard, you will see a list of existing redirects with details such as:

• Source URL
• Target URL
• Redirect type (301 / 302)
• Status (Active / Inactive)
• Hit count

This gives you a quick overview of your current redirection setup.

Step 3: Create a New Redirect

Click the Add New Redirect button.

Fill in the required fields:

• Source URL: The old or broken URL
• Target URL: The destination URL
• Redirect Type: Choose 301 or 302
• Status: Set as Active

Save the redirect to apply it immediately.

Step 4: Enable Advanced Redirect Options (Optional)

For advanced use cases, you can:

• Enable Regex pattern matching
• Set position-based redirect priority
• Manage redirect order to avoid conflicts

These options are ideal for large websites and dynamic URLs.

Step 5: Monitor Redirect Hits & Performance

Each redirect tracks how many times it has been used.

You can:

• Identify most-hit redirects
• Analyze redirect effectiveness
• Detect unnecessary or outdated redirects

This helps optimize both SEO and performance.

Step 6: Manage Redirect Status

You can:

• Activate or deactivate redirects
• Edit source or target URLs
• Delete unused redirects

This keeps your redirection system clean and efficient.

Step 7: Handle 404 Errors Proactively

The system automatically detects 404 errors.

You can:

• View broken URLs
• Create redirects directly from detected errors
• Prevent repeated crawl issues
