Force HTTPS on a live site
Create a simple redirect rule when you want visitors and crawlers to reach the secure version of your domain.
Create ready-to-use Apache `.htaccess` rules faster so you can standardize domain behavior, add simple protections, and export the generated file in one clean workflow.
Choose the Apache rules you want, generate the file instantly, then review the result before copying or downloading it.
Create a simple redirect rule when you want visitors and crawlers to reach the secure version of your domain.
Choose either www or non-www so the site resolves to one consistent hostname instead of splitting traffic.
Generate hotlink protection and common security headers when you want a quick Apache-side improvement.
Select Force HTTPS and Remove www when you want a secure canonical version without the www prefix.
Select Force HTTPS and Force www if your preferred domain includes `www` and you want secure traffic only.
Enable Block Image Hotlinking to reduce direct external linking to your image files.
Turn on Add Security Headers when you want a quick starting set of common browser-side response headers.
The generator builds Apache `.htaccess` code based on the options you select. Each option adds a specific ruleset, such as forcing HTTPS, preferring one host format, blocking hotlinked images, or setting common security headers.
It also checks for conflicting redirect choices. For example, enabling both Force www and Remove www would create contradictory behavior, so the tool stops that combination before generating output.
After generation, you get a quick summary showing how many rulesets were added and how large the output file is. That makes it easier to review the result before copying or downloading the `.htaccess` file for deployment.
Use the CSS Minifier if deployment also includes shrinking frontend stylesheet assets.
Open the JavaScript Minifier when your deployment cleanup also includes script output.

Writing Apache rules by hand can be slow and error-prone when you only need a straightforward redirect or protection setup. This generator helps reduce that friction by giving you ready-to-review output based on practical options.
It is especially useful for small deployments, shared hosting environments, quick SEO cleanup, and simple protection tasks where a full server config edit is not available.
Use it when launching HTTPS, choosing a preferred hostname, blocking image hotlinking, or adding a simple security-header layer to an Apache site.
The rule count and output size help you confirm that the generator added the sections you expected before the file gets uploaded or committed into a deployment workflow.
Copy the code into your server workflow, download the generated file for upload, or continue into related tools if your deployment work also includes asset minification or frontend cleanup.
