Hi,

In my ongoing effort to reduce the number of redirects for linuxsecurity.com, I could use a bit more help. Currently we have one redirect to strip off any potential trailing slash as well as another that strips out any preceding 'www'.

RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^www\.(.*)$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ https://%1/$1 [R=301,L]

RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^(.*)/$ $1 [R=301,L]

The rest of our redirects are of the form:

RewriteRule ^/about/us /about [L,R=301]

Should I be combining each of these to also do the above with something like:

RewriteRule ^/about/us/? https://linuxsecurity.com/about [L,R=301]

It seems like that would reduce the number of redirects by two, but I'm unsure of what implications that would otherwise have. Maybe if I instead performed the RewriteConds without R=301 and just rewrote the URL itself? I'm not sure how that works.

Any ideas greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Dave
