Redirect a Page Using .htaccess

Tip: if you cannot see the .htaccess file in cPanel File Manager, enable Show Hidden Files (dotfiles) in File Manager settings.

Use an .htaccess file to redirect visitors when a page has moved. Add the appropriate rule to the file in your website’s document root.

Redirect a page to another website

Replace /mypage.html with the path of the old page and the URL with the destination:

Redirect 301 /mypage.html https://example.com/

Redirect a page to another page

Replace the paths with the old and new page paths:

Redirect 301 /oldpage.html /newpage.html

With the second rule, a request for example.com/oldpage.html redirects to example.com/newpage.html. The 301 status indicates a permanent redirect.
