How to Set up URL Redirects on Squarespace

URL

Sometimes you need to delete pages from your website and that’s fine.

One thing you should always remember to do though is set up redirects. This means that if someone, or Google’s bots, land on the deleted page, instead of getting an error message they’ll be redirected elsewhere on your site.

Check out the YouTube video below 👇

To set up redirects head to settings > developer tools > URL mappings. In the box provided you’ll need to enter the URL that you want to redirect and the URL of the page you want it to point users to.

For example:

/tutorials -> /blog

In the example above, we would be redirecting an old, now deleted page on tutorials to the wider on-site blog. 

Don’t forget to add the arrow!

You then need to decide if this is a 301 redirect or a 302. A 301 redirect is permanent, a 302 is temporary.

For example:

/tutorials -> /blog 301
