apex and www behave differently

Check id: http.mixed_www_apex · fix effort: medium

What it means

One of your two front doors, with or without the www, doesn't work. Some of your links and typed-in visits are hitting an error.

The technical detail

Apex and www diverge. Both should resolve and serve, with one 301-ing to the canonical host.

How to fix it

  1. Add DNS + certificate coverage for the missing variant.
  2. 301 the non-canonical host to the canonical one.
