Bulk Import for Large Migrations
Import hundreds of redirect rules at once using CSV, space-separated, or arrow-format bulk input. The redirect generator parses multiple formats automatically, making it perfect for site migrations, domain changes, and URL restructuring projects.
100% Free with Unlimited Rules
The redirect generator is completely free with no signup, no usage limits, and no ads. Generate as many redirect rules as you need, export them for any platform, and download the configuration files directly - all at no cost.
Common Use Cases for Redirect Generator
Website Migration or Domain Change
When migrating to a new domain or restructuring your URL hierarchy, use the redirect generator to create bulk 301 redirects from old URLs to new ones. Import your old URL list in CSV format and export Apache .htaccess or Nginx rewrite rules in seconds.
HTTPS and WWW Canonicalization
Generate permanent (301) redirects from HTTP to HTTPS and from www to non-www (or vice versa) to consolidate ranking signals. The redirect generator supports all status codes so you can set up the correct canonical redirects for your SEO strategy.
SEO-Friendly URL Restructuring
When redesigning your site with cleaner URLs, create redirect rules that map old parameter-based URLs to new SEO-friendly paths. The redirect generator handles bulk imports so you can migrate thousands of URLs at once with the correct 301 status code.
Deployment Platform Migration
Moving from Apache to Nginx or from a traditional server to Vercel? The redirect generator lets you export the same redirect rules for different platforms. Switch between Apache, Nginx, Next.js, and Vercel formats with one click.
Campaign Landing Page Redirects
Create temporary (302) redirects for marketing campaigns that point short, memorable URLs to campaign landing pages. Use 307 redirects when you need to preserve POST data from forms during A/B testing or temporary promotions.
Next.js and Vercel Deployment Config
Generate redirect configuration for your Next.js application directly in next.config.js format, or prepare vercel.json redirects for Vercel deployments. The redirect generator outputs the complete configuration object - just copy and paste into your project.
About the Redirect Generator
What is a Redirect Generator?
A redirect generator is a tool that creates server configuration rules for URL redirects. When a page moves to a new URL, a redirect tells browsers and search engines where the content has gone. Our redirect generator supports four platforms (Apache, Nginx, Next.js, and Vercel) and four status codes (301, 302, 307, 308) so you can set up the correct redirect for any scenario.
How the Redirect Generator Works
Enter your source paths and destination URLs directly, or use the bulk import feature to load hundreds of redirect pairs at once. Choose the appropriate status code for each rule (301 for permanent moves, 302 for temporary redirects, 307 to preserve HTTP methods, 308 for permanent method-preserving redirects). Select your target platform and the redirect generator formats the output accordingly - from Apache RewriteRules to Nginx rewrite directives to Next.js redirects configuration objects.
What the Redirect Generator Saves You
Manually formatting redirect rules for different platforms is error-prone and time-consuming. A missing slash or incorrect syntax can break your redirect chain and harm SEO. The redirect generator eliminates syntax errors by producing platform-correct output every time. The bulk import feature saves hours when migrating thousands of URLs, and the tabbed platform switching means you never need to remember the syntax for each server type.
Tips for Effective Redirects
Use 301 (Moved Permanently) for permanent URL changes to preserve SEO ranking signals. Use 302 (Found) for temporary redirects like A/B testing or seasonal landing pages. Always redirect to the final destination URL - avoid redirect chains by updating old redirects when URLs change again. Test your redirects after deployment using curl or browser developer tools to verify they return the correct status code and destination.

Frequently Asked Questions
A redirect generator creates server configuration rules that tell browsers and search engines when a URL has moved to a new location. You enter source paths and destination URLs for each redirect rule, choose a status code (301, 302, 307, or 308), and select your target platform. The redirect generator then formats the rules correctly for Apache .htaccess, Nginx configuration, Next.js next.config.js, or Vercel vercel.json. All processing happens locally in your browser - no data is sent anywhere.
The redirect generator supports four platforms: Apache (.htaccess) with RewriteEngine and RewriteRule directives, Nginx with rewrite statements for server blocks, Next.js with the async redirects() function in next.config.js, and Vercel with the redirects array in vercel.json. Each platform has its own syntax and the redirect generator formats the output correctly for your chosen platform.
A 301 (Moved Permanently) redirect tells search engines the page has permanently moved, passing approximately 90-99% of ranking signals to the new URL. A 302 (Found) redirect indicates a temporary move and does not pass SEO value. A 307 (Temporary Redirect) is like 302 but preserves the HTTP method (POST stays POST). A 308 (Permanent Redirect) is like 301 but also preserves the HTTP method. For most SEO scenarios, use 301 for permanent URL changes and 302 for temporary ones.
Click the "Bulk Import" button to open the bulk import panel. Paste your redirect pairs one per line in CSV format (e.g., /old-page,/new-page), space-separated (e.g., /old-page /new-page), or arrow format (e.g., /old-page -> /new-page). The redirect generator automatically detects the format and imports all valid pairs. You can combine multiple formats in the same import. Each imported rule defaults to a 301 status code, which you can change individually after import.
Absolutely. The redirect generator runs entirely in your browser using client-side JavaScript. Your URLs, redirect rules, and any data you enter are never sent to any server, stored in a database, or logged. Everything stays completely private on your device. This is particularly important when handling sensitive URL structures or migration strategies that you may not want exposed.
For Apache, copy the generated .htaccess rules into your root .htaccess file and upload it to your server. For Nginx, add the rewrite directives to your server block configuration and reload Nginx. For Next.js, paste the redirects array into your next.config.js file and redeploy. For Vercel, add the redirects to your vercel.json and deploy. After deploying, test each redirect using curl -I https://yoursite.com/old-page to verify it returns the correct status code and Location header.
Yes - the redirect generator is ideal for site migrations. Export your old URL list from your analytics tool or sitemap, format it as a CSV (old URL, new URL), and use the bulk import feature to load all redirect rules at once. The redirect generator supports unlimited rules, so you can import thousands of URLs for a full domain migration. Use 301 status codes for permanent moves to preserve your SEO rankings.
Apache .htaccess uses RewriteRule directives with a RewriteEngine On header, and flags like [R=301,L] to specify the status code and end processing. Nginx uses rewrite directives within server or location blocks. The key syntax difference is that Apache rules are evaluated in order and stop at [L], while Nginx rewrites can continue processing unless explicitly stopped. The redirect generator handles both syntaxes correctly for your chosen platform.
Yes - the redirect generator is 100% free with no signup, no account, and no usage limits. Generate as many redirect rules as you need, import thousands of URLs, export for multiple platforms, and download the configuration files - all at no cost forever with no ads.
