    Hello! I have migrated the whole site to https, but seem to be having an SEO problem with rankings, since apparently google is seeing both the http and https sites, which is “dualizing” the traffic. I have an SSL certificate through the host (GoDaddy).

    I am not sure what dualizing traffic means. Can someone explain why this is bad or why it doesn’t matter?

    Also, should the whole site be on https or should that be reserved for the checkout and cart pages only?

    The page I need help with: [log in to see the link]

    Add this to the top of your .htaccess file. It will force your site to be “all https all the time.”

    RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{HTTPS} !=on
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ https://%{HTTP_HOST}%{REQUEST_URI} [L,R=301,NE]
