SEO Fixes - Security: HTTP URLs #203

Closed ghost closed 1 year ago

ghost commented 1 year ago

Link for the URLs - https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1RO-UM3rP92ws5-_w6gL3ab4ul2fHsa0zfyHt5z3gXs8/edit#gid=327183677

Priority High

Description HTTP URLs that are encountered in the crawl. All websites should be secure over HTTPS today on the web. Not only is it important for security, but it's now expected by users. Chrome and other browsers display a 'Not Secure' message against any URLs that are HTTP, or have mixed content issues (where they load insecure resources on them). To view how these URLs were discovered, view their 'inlinks' in the lower window tab. You can also export any pages that link to HTTP URLs via 'Bulk Export > Security > HTTP URLs Inlinks'.

Resolution All URLs should be to secure HTTPS pages. Pages should be served over HTTPS, any internal links should be updated to HTTPS versions and HTTP URLs should 301 redirect to HTTPS versions. HTTP URLs identified in this filter that are redirecting to HTTPS versions already should be updated to link to the correct HTTPS versions directly.

@svikrantaxioned Thank you for your proposal. I agree on the principle but It is missing an information: on which page(s) are these HTTP URLs?

Popolechien commented 1 year ago

@kelson42 Look at the google doc link? There's three related to download.kiwix.org so within your remit.

@Popolechien I don't get it, this sheet should have at least two colums:

Where are, or what are the names of these two columns.... i see only one column with urls!?

  1. When I click these URLs, I am redirected to an HTTPS connection, so I don't see a real issue here.
  2. To fix them, I need to know on which pages these links are published.
