Website redirect to new domain

Website redirect to new domain

So you have a website on Domain A and you want to redirect all traffic including sub pages to Domain B. Eg. domain-A/contact > domain-B/contact

So what you would need to do is the following:

  1. Point Domain A at Domain B’s web server

  2. Add Domain A to Domain B’s web account as an addon/alias domain

  3. Create entry in .htaccess file on web server of Domain B to setup the redirect as follows

    #BEGIN Domain Redirect
Options +FollowSymLinks
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^domain-a.com$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ https://domain-b.com/$1 [R=302,L]
#END Domain Redirect

    Note: This creates a temporary redirect. If you want to create a permanent redirect change [R=302,L] to [R=301,L] - The change to permanent cannot be undone, so proceed with caution.
