Does this even need to be fixed?

Hi, I`m new to this group. I have a really dumb question. sorry in advance if I`m not explaining it properly. In ahrefs i keep getting an issue that needs to be fixed in terms of redirects. This site in particular was http and is now https. Ahrefs says how to fix it "is recommended to replace the links to the internal redirected URLs on your website with the direct links to the destination pages where possible." I have no redirecting links.Is there a step that I am missing? Does this even need to be fixed? Thank you!

  • Michael Martinez: If when a visitor lands on the HTTP version of the site, their browser loads the HTTPS version instead, then that is a redirect.

    So what I think ahrefs is telling you is to find the links that point to "http://..." and change the protocol from "http" to "https".

  • Chadwyn Williams: Michael Martinez ok! Thank you for replying!
