What can I do with redirect.pizza?

redirect.pizza handles URL redirects for a wide range of situations, from domain migrations to vanity URLs. Every redirect runs on our edge network with automatic HTTPS, and you manage all of them from a single dashboard. These are the most common ways our customers use it.

Redirect between www and non-www

Make sure every visitor lands on the same version of your site, no matter how they type the domain:

  • Non-www to www: visitors of example.com are redirected to www.example.com. This prevents duplicate content and keeps your SEO signals on one hostname.
  • www to non-www: prefer the shorter URL? Redirect www.example.com to example.com.

See the step-by-step guide or read about the apex to www use case.

Migrate or restructure a website

Moving to a new domain or changing your URL structure? Redirects make sure old links keep working.

  • Migrating to a new domain: redirect all traffic from oldsite.com to newsite.com while keeping the paths intact, so oldsite.com/blog lands on newsite.com/blog. Enable path forwarding for this.
  • Path-specific redirects: move example.com/about-us to example.com/about without losing the SEO value of the old URL.

Follow the domain migration guide or read the renaming your website use case.

Consolidate multiple domains

Point alternative and legacy domains at your primary one, for example example.net and example.org to example.com. Visitors who use an old domain still reach your site, which is especially useful after a rebrand or when merging businesses.

Keep the value of your backlinks

When URLs change, a 301 redirect makes sure existing backlinks keep working and pass their SEO value to the new destination. A third-party blog linking to oldsite.com/blog/post1 keeps sending visitors, who now land on newsite.com/articles/post1.

Redirect to third-party services

Point a domain or subdomain at an external platform, for example store.example.com to your Shopify store or jobs.example.com to a recruitment platform. Marketing or HR can manage these redirects themselves, without involving IT.

Vanity URLs

Create short, branded URLs that redirect to longer or more complex links. They're ideal for print, presentations and social media:

  • example.com/sale to example.com/promotions/2026-holiday
  • example.com/join to a sign-up form or third-party service

Read how to set up vanity URLs with redirect.pizza.

Localized redirects

Send visitors to the regional version of your site with dynamic destinations: redirect example.com to example.fr for visitors from France, or route on any other property of the incoming request, such as language or device.
