I have two variations of my domain on webmasters. One is www and the other is non-www.

I have set my preferred domain to be non-www.

I have used the function "Fetch as Google" and have had redirects in both of them.

Firstly, my www redirects to https

Secondly, my non-www redirects to www (http not https)

My questions are:
- Should I be adding a variation of my site to webmasters as https as well? Is there a way to canonicalize http vs https?
- Are these re-directs a problem?
- Does it sound like I have duplicate content from what you can see?
- Why is my non-www redirecting to my www when I have set the canonicalization to non-www preferred?

i guess, you should have some troubles with settings of http, https, www and non-www on the hoster side (or in your htaccess, httpd.conf or nginx.conf - don't know, what webserver in use).


Inspect your setup - what variant redirect where.
After inspection establish only one canonical variant, like www, than make sure, that every other variant is 301-redirected to the canonical.
Than setup your Search console according to your canonical variant.
