Does My http:// and www Redirect in a Single Hop to https://?

Every domain has four protocol/subdomain variants: http://domain.com, http://www.domain.com, https://domain.com, and https://www.domain.com. Exactly one should return 200 OK as your canonical origin, while the other three should 301 redirect to it in a single hop.

Why This Matters for Search & AI Visibility

If both www and non-www return 200 OK without redirecting, search engines split your PageRank authority and index duplicate URLs across both hosts.

How to Fix It Permanently

Configure your edge reverse proxy (Caddy, Nginx, or Cloudflare) to 301 redirect both http:// and the non-canonical subdomain directly to your canonical https:// host.
