Getting your Trinity Audio player ready...

If you run a website, it will be more secure if you enable HSTS Preload correctly and submit it to a Google property known as https://hstspreload.org/. I tried some plugins, but they added validation errors. I prefer not using a plugin if there’s another way to solve the problem. This is the quickest method, so give it a try if you tried the above test/submission and your domain failed.
Table of Contents
Edit the .htaccess File
Two entries are required in this file that lives in your website’s root folder. I added them after the # END WordPress line. The first entry adds the HSTS header. The next entry makes an HTTP request redirect HTTPS before anything else.
Header set Strict-Transport-Security "max-age=31536000; includeSubDomains; preload"
#Redirection code starts
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{HTTPS} off
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ https://%{HTTP_HOST}%{REQUEST_URI} [L,R=301]
#Redirection code Ends
Check the Site Again
That was a successful submission.
