URL redirects

Keep old university links working with URL redirects

When a department moves or changes its name, URL redirects send students, faculty, and visitors from the old address to the new one. You keep your SEO value.

  • Add your URL to start a redirect. The visual interface walks you through the rest.
  • When you rebrand or restructure your site, redirects keep old links working and keep your search engine rankings.
  • Analytics and tracking show how visitors use your links and how each campaign performs.
