Create search term redirects

  • Updated

Use search term redirects in Optimizely Configured Commerce to create a redirect associated with a specific search term. This can be useful when there is a particular page with products or content relevant to a common search term.

Do not confuse this with HTML redirects, where each page from an old website can be mapped to an equivalent page on the new site, ensuring users with bookmarks or old indexing are redirected to the current website.

  1. Go to Admin Console > Marketing > Redirects.
  2. Click Add Search Term Redirect to add a new redirect.

  3. Enter the Term that would be in the search query. This can be more than one word.
  4. Provide the Redirect URL. This can be an internal or external URL.
  5. Determine which website this Search Term Redirect is applied to. If no website is chosen, it applies to all websites.
  6. (Optional) Use the date picker menu to select an Activate On date or a Deactivate On date. If no date is chosen, the redirect starts immediately and persists indefinitely until you delete it or set a date.

As the list of Search Term Redirects grows, sort the records quickly based on any of the column titles, filter the list using the search filter, or display/hide items that have been archived.
