How to redirect site from http to https?

[makoo]

When you plan to host your site with SSL, redirect http to https is very important. Reason is that Google has started to rank non-https website as not secured. So, the page title and description will be marked as ""Not Secure"". You should not let your website fall prey to this security issue. I have created a detailed guide to redirect http to https. These days, websites are using https on a regular basis for secure connectivity. HTTPS protocol offers encryption and authentication through Transport Layer Security (TLS) or its predecessor Secure Sockets Layer (SSL). To complete the transaction, server has to authenticate itself through client and then both have to agree upon the encryption algorithm being used for transmitted data.

 if you do it correctly, your website will have the 'https' prefix at the beginning and a secure socket at the end. Many popular browsers will warn you if you're loading a HTTP site. If you're running an eCommerce store, you should use HTTPS to keep your customers safe.

Step 1: In IIS, check the "Require SSL" option for your web application.
Step 2: Now you must construct an HTML file with an HTTP to HTTPS redirect code.
Step 3: On IIS, create an Error page.
