What is a redirect?
A redirect is an automatic process that takes a user from one web page to another. For example, it’s used when a link no longer works, directing visitors to a new page.
1. Request:
A user clicks on a link or types a URL.
2. Redirect:
The server detects that the original page is unavailable and automatically redirects the user to another page.
3. New Page:
The user is taken to the correct (new) page without needing to do anything manually
