        It used to always be suggested that directories were linked with a trailing slash.  The thinking there is that is indicates that the server should be looking for a directory not a file and make the look-up faster.  I've never been able to notice or measure any difference though to be honest.

        I would suggest just picking one and sticking to it. Also make sure that one of them redirects cleanly to the other. Which way around you decide to do it is probably less important.

        • Ideally should a 301 or 302 redirect be used from https://www.site.com to http://www.site.com? Is there a valid reason to use a 302 in this situation or would using a 301 have any negative impact on seo?
