Posted: Sun Feb 16, 2025 8:18 am
As with WordPress and Magento, implementing 301 redirects on a Shopify store is quick and easy.
Go to Sales Channels > Online Store > Navigation
At the top of the page, you'll find a rather inconspicuous link: "URL Redirects." Click on it.
The next step is as simple as adding your source URL and target URL in “Redirect from” and “Redirect to”.
If you run an e-commerce store on BigCommerce, here's how to add 301 redirects:
Then choose either a manual link (and you enter the new south africa phone number data URL to redirect to) or a dynamic link (you can select a page or category, and the redirect will automatically update if you change that page later) as the redirect type.
Enter the URL of your new page or choose a page to redirect to if you selected the dynamic link option.
Common 301 Redirect Mistakes & How to Avoid Them
It's easy to make mistakes when implementing 301 redirects. Here are some of the most common mistakes and tips to avoid them.
Pages that return a 404 error
In most cases, it is best to not let deleted pages return a 404 code, and to implement 301 redirects to direct users and search engines to the new target page.
You can use SEMRush's Site Audit tool to identify pages that return 404 (and other 4XX) errors and resolve these issues using redirects.
