Too many 301 redirects
« on: July 01, 2021, 02:49:32 PM »
Just wondering if anyone could help me with this.
I have a domain that until recently I only used for emails. Today I decided to place a website on the domain but before I could do so I found that all the browsers i visited tells me that the domain has too many 301 redirects.
Right now there is no htaccess files anywhere. I've rebuilt Apache, cleared cache on browser as well as CWP. Checked with the domain register to make sure no redirects have ever been put in place.

So as I can't find any reason for the 301 redirects, could this account have a malware infection? Or could there be another reason.
I do have other accounts hosted on CWP (about 12) and none of them are effected.

Thanks for the reply.
I did discover that my domain register was redirecting the domain after all. They said they do it for dormant domains and then redirect to their advertising site... Bit of a cheek and I didn't have any control over the redirects so I had to be polite.
needless to say, I've moved.
I do really appreciate your reply I was pulling my hair out to be honest.
