Thanks for the info! One of the issues I have been dealing with is speed. Good to know addressing the redirects chain will help with this as well.

Thanks for the feedback! Now that I know the proper way to redirect, I can determine the cause of the redirect chains.

How To Avoid Redirect Chains When Switching From http to https
I have been working on on-page SEO which has involved switching from http to https, and renaming URLs. I am running in to issues with redirect chains. Here is a scenario:
Old URL: http://bwisecontractors.ca/products/decks-and-deck-covers/
New URL: https://bwisecontractors.ca/renos-additions/sunrooms-patio-covers/
Since I already created the redirect addressing the redirecting from http to https for the root domain: (http://bwisecontractors.ca to https://bwisecontractors.ca), should the redirect for the above be
http://bwisecontractors.ca/products/decks-and-deck-covers/ to https://bwisecontractors.ca/renos-additions/sunrooms-patio-covers/ ,
or should it be
http://bwisecontractors.ca/products/decks-and-deck-covers/ to http://bwisecontractors.ca/renos-additions/sunrooms-patio-covers/ (and the root domain redirect will take care of going from http to https)
