Question:



How does this change effect google ranking?



E.G,



http://domain.com/this-is-a-product.html



is now:



https://domain.com/this-is-a-product.html



Does this need to be redirected?



Thanks!

Dear Kayokoko,



We do not understand the question.



Do you mean the situation when the page with 404 error turns to the main page?

Or the difference in urls?



Best regards, Alt-team.
